Tourist Guide

This is a must visit, one of the best of Dakar`s markets! In a beautiful circular building the fish traders has their place in the center. Then comes butchers in the next circle, vegetable and fruit dealers outside there together with florists. Outside the building you will find typical African souvenirs such as jewelry, masks and sculptures.
