📣 Hinweise für Reisende

Located in West Africa, Benin is known for its rich culture, including the ruins and temples of the former Kingdom of Dahomey (1800s–1894). The country maintains deep connections to Vodun traditions, which is both the official religion and a core element of daily life. Key historical sites often relate to Vodun practices or the slave trade. Visitors can also explore national parks with diverse wildlife, the Grand Popo ocean beach, and artisan markets in Se.
