Rivers of the World

Niger (1x3)

Data emisji: Lis 24, 2010

The Niger carries its myths across the whole of West Africa. In Mali it bathes the waterfronts of Djenn, a town built from the earth it stands on, and of Timbuktu, the pearl of the desert. From Bamako to Gao the river is for some the mother spirit, for others the magical and mysterious Queen of the Waters, but it is worshipped by all for its immense power.
