Algeria ::


The main sight is the town itself with its nice structures, small streets and laid back atmosphere. Here is a list things you will want to photograph while you wander around town.

The Mosque
The Mosque in Mopti was built in 1935. It was modelled after the one in Djenne. It is hard to be let in if you are not a muslim, but you can climb the roof of one of the houses nearby to let you have a sneak view of the mosque.

River trips
A nice excursion can be a trip with a prirogue on the river. If you make a somewhat lonegr trip, you can visit nearby villages (Kaladoga e.g.). Go to the Bar Bozo and you will easily find a boat owner willing to take you. Dusk is a good time.

Grand Marche
The Grand Marche is in the Old Town, not too far from the Mosque. Thursday is market day. There is a lot of dried fish to be bought, as well as salt form the salt mines near Timbuktu.
