Mali is a place that 99% of people will never visit in their lifetime.

Finally arrived at the tenth country in West Africa - Mali🇲🇱 The Mali Empire was once built on gold mines Today it is one of the least developed countries in the world The illiteracy rate among those over 15 years old is as high as 70% Many people are unable to enjoy education and medical care throughout their lives This turbulent country is still not peaceful Photographing street scenes on the road will be prohibited There is very little travel information about Mali online. Arriving at the capital Bamako, the road was filled with dust. After getting off the car and walking for a short time, you will be surrounded by people. A country that most people will never visit in their lifetime ✨Bamako day trip 📍Mali National Park One of the few attractions, many locals come here for leisure and vacation The park and the zoo are connected together, and the ticket is 🎫1000 📍National Museum of Mali At the entrance of the park is the National Museum of Mali, where you can take a tour Museum tickets 🎫1500, no photography allowed inside There are many architectural models outside, including the moss-covered Mosque of Djenné If you can’t go to Timbuktu, you might as well go there if you want to see the miniature version🙈 📍Bamako Museum There are very few things on display inside, the entrance fee is 🎫1500, plus another 100 for taking pictures This is the simplest museum I have ever been to...but the staff is very welcoming 📍Cathedral of the Sacred Heart of Bamako Not far away is the cathedral, you can visit it by the way 📍Great Mosque of Bamako It's very chaotic around here, so be careful. 📍Tower Of Africa The African Tower is far away from the city, half an hour one way, and is relatively easy to reach from the airport. We had plenty of time so we chartered a car to go sightseeing. I don’t recommend going there specially. 🍴Food 📍Le Loft Highly recommend this restaurant! Elegant environment I didn’t expect to be able to eat French food in such a nice environment in Mali. The moment I opened the door from the dusty road and walked in, I felt like I had traveled through time... 📍Add or subtract milk tea I finally got to drink bubble milk tea on my journey to West Africa🧋I was so moved that I wanted to cry! 📍Restaurant Balasoko This restaurant is in a national park, very close to the zoo The environment is good and the price/performance ratio is very high! 🏨Hotel 📍Hôtel l'Amitié Bamako I heard that Mali is quite chaotic, so I stayed in a five-star hotel just to be safe. Entry and exit security is also very strict, and the hotel environment and facilities are good. People often ask why they should travel to Africa There are no tourism resources here, and the health conditions and infrastructure are not good. But I always feel that all hearsay is not as good as real personal experience. This world is not always bright and beautiful Behind our so-called modern life In fact, there are many people living in completely different ways And they didn't even have a choice...
