Catholic Monolith in the middle of West Africa! - Whether we understand or how our Lady of Peace came to a land in the middle of French West Africa in a poor country, and situated in three hours away from the main city, it does in fact exist there and Catholics worldwide must make a stop to see it when they find themselves in this part of the world. A near exact replica of Saint Peters in Vatican Square, you marvel at the enormity of the structure compared to its surroundings and wonder how few people can possibly make it there to visit every year. But I’m pretty psyched that I made it on a day trip from Abidjan!

Great guides - josiane for Yamoussoukro and LukeYakro basilica were amazing!!! - Josiane was very organized and a good communicator. We learned a lot about Cote d'Ivoire and saw the treasures of the political capital Yamoussoukro. LukeYakro is the English speaking guide at the basilica and he is soooo knowledgeable. There were so many cool. Views and secrets.
