見どころ

The twin villages of Joal-Fadiouth are located approximately 110km south of Dakar, at the terminus of the coastal road. Joal, the birthplace of Senegal’s first president, Léopold Sédar Senghor, sits on the mainland. In contrast, Fadiouth is a small island accessible only by a long wooden bridge. Remarkably, the island is composed entirely of oyster and clam shells deposited over centuries; these shells line the narrow maze of streets and are even embedded into the walls of the houses. The community is renowned for its religious tolerance, where Christians and Muslims live in perfect harmony. This is reflected in the town's architecture, where shrines to the Virgin Mary and a large church stand alongside an equally prominent mosque. A second wooden bridge leads to a massive, ancient shell mound that serves as a shared cemetery for both faiths—a final, peaceful testament to the village's spirit of unity.

行程

  1. The twin village of Joal and Fadiout are about 110km south of Dakar at the end of tar road that runs along the coast. Joal the birth place of the first president ( Leopold Senghor) is on the mainland while Fadiout is on a small island reached by a long wooden bridge. The island of Fadiout is composed entirely of oyster and clam shell that have been deposited over the centuries. The village of Fadiout covers the island and everything is made of shells. They cover the maze of narrow streets and are embedded the walls of the houses. The centre has a definite charm. The citizens of Joal and Fadiout are rightly proud of their religions tolerance. Christians and muslims live in harmony there, with Fadiout’s shrines to the virgin Mary and large church complemented by an equally large Mosque. The overall feel is one of harmony , and Fadiout has a very relaxed atmosphere. A huge ancient shell mound is reached by another woden bridge and is home to both a Christian and muslim cemetery. On the way you will visit the famous sacred baobab.

About Dakar

Dakar, the capital of Senegal, sits on the Cap-Vert peninsula, the westernmost point of mainland Africa, a city of markets, music and ocean beaches.

Dakar occupies the tip of the Cap-Vert peninsula, jutting into the Atlantic at the westernmost point of mainland Africa. The city mixes colonial boulevards with busy markets such as Sandaga and fishing beaches where painted pirogues unload at Soumbédioune. The African Renaissance Monument, a huge bronze statue of a man, woman and child on a hilltop at Ouakam, overlooks the coast.

Top-ranked sights in Dakar: Gorée Island, Maison des Esclaves, Lake Retba (Lac Rose).
