Travel Ivory Coast
Ivory coast or what government there calls ‘Cote d’Ivoire’.Major alliance is France after ivory’s independence.They were the largest exporters of cocoa and coffee.Natural assets with this country are plenty but level of corruption is to high.
Capital city Yamoussoukro, a unique city of africa it looks like.Lights and more funds given by earlier president than other cities.Remains of virgin forests are Tai national park.Huge trees,dense.A bit of wildlife and you will have to take permission to go through it,some bribe i suppose.Rainy and humid region so better to go in summer.Small streams and other natural scenery makes this place worth visiting.
Abidjan is another unattended city by the government.Some more national parks and places.Churches are well built earlier,as christians are second to native ivorians.Abidjan International airport is the only airport.Not many airlines fly,very few african airlines land here.Buses and minibuses are best options to travel.There are express trains to ghana,burkin faso and neighbouring cross border cities but now unused by passengers.
The safety is the first risk you are always with while in Ivory coast.
