Africa - Mali (PDF Chapter)

This is the Mali chapter from Lonely Planet’s Africa guidebook.

Mali is blessed by an extraordinary amount of beauty, wonders, talents and knowledge. Yet for now, its landscapes, monuments and stories are off-limits, sealed from tourists by a conflict that is threatening the very culture of Mali.

• Dogon Country is a fairytale of rose-coloured villages, big blue skies, sacred crocodiles and sandstone cliffs
• maps
• the sounds of live music, sprawling markets and motorbikes purring along the banks of the Niger River in Bamako

Coverage includes: Understand Mali and Survival Guide.
