- Hello, welcome back to the channel. As you explore the captivating city of Dakar Senegal, you will discover a myriad of experiences that will blow your mind and rekindle your love for the African continent. Dakar Senegal is located on the Cape Verde Peninsula, surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, dotted with high-rise buildings, commercial centers, and modern residential complexes.
In this video i show you Dakar, the capital city of Senegal like never seen before. I started the tour from one end of the Dakar peninsula called Almades and headed to the other end of the city where the administrative capital is located so you can see how developed Senegal is. Then later we will proceed to the center point of the city to see the most popular residential neighbourhood with highrise complexes that will surprise you.
With a population of over 16 million people, Senegal is a vibrant and welcoming nation that showcases the essence of West African charm. Dakar, the capital city of Senegal, serves as the cultural and economic hub of the country. It showcases a blend of modern infrastructure, bustling markets, and historical landmarks. The iconic African Renaissance Monument stands tall, symbolizing the nation's aspirations for progress and unity. Gorée Island, a short distance from Dakar, is a poignant reminder of the transatlantic slave trade and a place of remembrance and reflection.
As you delve into the heart of Dakar, you will be immersed in its vibrant and colorful culture. The city pulsates with a lively atmosphere fueled by music, dance, and art. Dakar's art scene is impressive, with numerous galleries showcasing the works of both established and emerging artists, offering a glimpse into the creativity and diversity and talent of Senegalese people.
In terms of governance, Dakar plays a pivotal role in the political landscape of Senegal. The city is home to the Presidential Palace, government institutions, and foreign embassies. Dakar hosts major regional and international conferences, including the World Social Forum and the International Forum on Peace and Security in Africa, further solidifying its status as a diplomatic and political hub.
The economic development of Dakar has been driven by various sectors, including finance, trade, and services. The city is home to numerous national and international banks, financial institutions, and corporate headquarters. It also hosts major conferences, exhibitions, and trade fairs, attracting participants from around the world. Dakar's strategic location has contributed to its position as a regional hub for trade, with the Port of Dakar serving as a major gateway for imports and exports in West Africa.

My question is, why does the western media derive joy in showing us hungry kids and villages whenever they talk about Africa?
Tanzanian here...Senegalese are the most humble people i have met...hands down
Thank you
will agree. Not like one boastful nationality in Africa situated near togo
@@maxa6453 😁😁😁
@@maxa6453 timorous like you in Africa can't assume their act . If you are boy be clear and precised.
At least is far better than the useless giant of Africa, the poverty capital in the world country,the talkertives who can not build schools to educate their citizens so they have to travel down to the country near to Togo to educate themselves,Mugus.
I am from Mexico but living in Canada, there I met my best friend, he’s from Senegal, I have met his family and all of them are friendly, happy, funny and with a kind heart. One lucky day I will be able to visit Senegal 🇸🇳 ❤

After seeing this video, i take my hat off as a South African. Senegal take the no.1 spot for me in West Africa. Its neat and well organised,buildings are eye chatching.
cote d'ivoire and nigeria
Thanks a lot. But, South Africa is really nice too. I was in Jobourg and Bela-Bela during a short journey.
Abuja Nigeria is beautiful than darka
@@itechholdingceo5664 not cote d’ivoire. There is just one district in Abidjan.
Never thought Dakar like this,Looks nice and clean,Much love from Algeria 💕🇩🇿
Downtown dakar has many futures like neighborhoods in Algiers Downtown, Rue Didouche Mourad, Hussein Dey, and El Biar. As a former resident in both countries, it's for reasons french used to refer to Algiers as Alger la blanche. Dakar is a really cool place to visit. I lived in Algeria for 3 years and Dakar for 2 years during my early years in Canada foreign service.
أحسن من جزائر القارة 😂😂😂😂😂
@@nooradnane9528 Algiers🇩🇿 is the most European city in Africa 💕😘 And proud of seeing other African cities developing
Quite normal, the Western medias always show africa in its ugliest way just to humiliate them. Thanks to people like this page's owner, we can show how beautiful and developed we are.
Nope stop.😂👎

Hello .You are welcome in Sénégal ❤.
Woooooooow! Dakar is the most beautiful city in West Africa.
I can not imagine that Dakar is so developped.
Love from Togo .
Why you can not imagine that?
Vive le Sénégal et le Togo
In fact, it's just that most Senegalese are humble so don't make much noise on the networks

Dakar est la plus belle ville francophone de l'Afrique de l'ouest. Et les Sénégalais n'en font même pas du bruit autour. L'architecture est très harmonieuse dans l'ensemble de la ville. Bon travail M. Mathieu

It is really true that West Africa is rising! By 2021, West Africa’s gross domestic product (GDP PPP) was $1.714 trillion, despite COVID 19 and the European world war. Four of the countries (Benin, Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana and Senegal), you have highlighted are among seven countries with per capita GDP of $3,000 or more in 2021: Benin, $3,300; Senegal, $3,500; Nigeria, $4,900; Côte d'Ivoire, $5,300; Mauritania, $5,300; Ghana, $5,400; and Cape Verde, $6,100.
As of July 2023, there were 448 million people in Western Africa. West Africa is rising!
