Ganvie Xwe

Ganvie, la aldea flotante en el lago Nokoue, donde 30,000 personas viven en casas sobre pilotes sobre el agua. Los niños reman en canoas antes de poder caminar. El mercado se realiza en botes. Todo llega y sale por agua porque no hay carreteras y nunca las habrá. El pueblo Tofinu construyó esta aldea en el lago hace siglos y no se van.
