It is such a pity that it started raining just when the market of Djenne was about to start.

Women had carried heavy loads on their heads from villages that are far from here. Anything that locals need everyday can be found in the market: wood, sandals, fruits, clothes...

Mali can boast of possessing the biggest mud building in the world. The mosque attracted many believers. Djenne once was an islam teaching centre in East Africa.

The market.
Camel caravans used to cross the Sahara and bring salt. They could buy gold and slaves and carry them across the desert to be sold.
