Ganvie

Ganvie is basically Africa's Venice, in that water transportation is huge in this community. Also, the entire town's architecture reflects its super unique location: a lake. Apparently this was for tribal land disputes or something like that, but however it happened, it would be something really cool to visit. The houses and businesses are largely located in buildings on stilts above the water surface. Imagine an entire city on a lake. Very neat if you ask me.
