Jour de la Basilique Sainte-Anne

The green-tiled basilica that overlooks Brazzaville, with its sweeping roof and its stained glass, is the most beautiful building in the city. Built in 1949, consecrated in 2011 as a minor basilica, Sainte-Anne dominates the skyline and the spiritual life of the capital. Every Congolese Catholic has prayed here, married here, or mourned here.

Animals of Qatar Day

You encounter Arabian oryx, sand gazelles, and dugongs in Qatar's desert and coastal waters. You find that Qatari pet owners predominantly keep Arabian horses, salukis, and cats as their favored companions. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
