About Dakar
Senegal's capital, Dakar, is a city located on the western coast of Africa. Dakar, which was the capital of French West Africa for many years, is a city where you can still see French colonial influence in the architecture and street layout, and is famous for its
world-famous "Paris-Dakar" off-road rally.
In Dakar places such as Presidential Building, Independence Square, Soweto Area, Medina, Grand Mosque, African Recollection Cathedral, Goree Island, Slaves House Museum, Parliament Building, "Pink Lake" (which gets its name from the minerals which gives the water that unique color) and the Fish Market may be visited. Goree Island, which was once an important center of the global slave trade, will affect you more than the other historic buildings.
In Dakar the tropical weather is hot and humid. In winter it does not rain too much. Temperatures are less severe than in the summer. The temperature average in winter is around 26-27 degrees Celsius, versus 30-33 degrees in the summer. The city offers lots of opportunities to eat both French and African cuisine. Credit cards and debit cards are widely used, but it is recommended to use a taxi for transportation.
