The Niger, a magical river at the heart of the life, culture, and history of West African peoples

Throughout West Africa, the Niger carries with it its legends. In Mali, it bathes the shores of Djéné, the city of earth, and Timbuktu, the pearl of the desert. From Bamako to Gao, it is for some a nurturing genius, for others a magical and mysterious Queen of the Waters. But no one fails to pay tribute to the river’s great power. ------- Chapters ▷ 00:00 - Intro ▷ 01:15 - Niger, from Guinea to Nigera ▷ 02:00 - Magical spirit and rituals to celebrate the river ▷ 03:45 - Bozo Fishermen Race ▷ 06:30 - Bozo Ceremony ▷ 08:40 - The Pottery Village of Kalabougou ▷ 14:15 - Djenné, in Mali, & its unique mud-brick architecture ▷ 18:35 - The connection betwenn man and the river ▷ 23:20 - Taboo Lake in Ivory Coast ▷ 26:42 - Mopti, Venice of Mali ▷ 32:29 - Ecological disasters with soil erosions and overfishing ▷ 33:25 - River doctors ▷ 42:20 - Credits #documentary #niger #nigerriver #mali #africa #westafrica #crocodiles #wildlife #river #rafting #hiking ------- Subscribe to wocomoTRAVEL: https://goo.gl/tIk2Qc Follow us on Facebook:   / wocomo   ------- A journey through the most spectacular sites of our planet, exploring the geographical and historical imprints of each of these great rivers.
