Burkina Faso Wink Travel Guide

Burkina Faso, formerly Upper Volta, is a landlocked country in West Africa. It is surrounded by six countries: Mali to the north, Niger to the east, Benin to the south east, Togo and Ghana to the south, and Côte d'Ivoire to the south west. Burkina Faso is one of the friendliest, and one of the safest - countries in all of Africa. Even before the unrest that had made travel to the country unsafe, it received only a few tourists per year, and was an excellent destination for anyone interested in seeing a beautiful West African country and exploring African culture and music. Wink Travel Guides introduce you to the best world travel destinations, in a clear and concise way, illustrated by photos.
