Daylife and myths - Murales in Cotonou

avatar
(Edited)

Hello to all!

Today I will show you a murales that will be the longer one in the world! We are in Cotonou (Benin).

Murales is in progress, many artists are still working on it. It is located on the wall behind the harbor of Cotonou.

China has made big investment in this country, specially in Cotonou (the capital) and some other cities nearby, building hotels and restructuring many areas, with the hope to make Benin the most touristic destination of West Africa.

We have shotted some pictures waiting people walking in front or watching the colorful paintings, creating suggestive interaction between daylife and myths.

Thanks Constant, our super guide!

A thunderstorm has arriving, so we decided to move away:

Pictures taken with Nikon D800 (70-200 F4) and Sony Alpha 7iii (24-70 F2.8).

Thank you! My English is not good.. Better to use 'daylife' or 'lifestyle'?

Daylife sound good... Lifestyle is more common. I like both... but English doesn't have to be perfect, especially when it's a 2nd or 3rd language. Keep up the great work!!!
