5의 세네갈 삼각주가지 명소 & 주요 장소

Climate change is very real in Guet N'dar which dates back to the eighteenth century and as home to thousands of fishers who catch 30,000 tonnes annually. Sea level rise and coastal erosion are leading to environmental disaster and many people have been displaced already. Some experts have warned that the warming temperatures mean Saint Louis is threatened with near-total submergence in the not-so-distant future.

The harbor with its colorful fishing boats is particularly worth seeing - a vibrant UNESCO World Heritage site!

Border crossing Rosse from Mauritania to Senegal No highlight, more of a warning from February 2022 There are special conditions for this border crossing: A letter of recommendation from the Senegalese embassy in Nouakchott must be submitted in duplicate, original + photocopy. The letter is available free of charge from the Senegalese embassy. To do this, submit a handwritten request and a photocopy of your passport between 9:00 and 11:00 in the morning (photo page). The request must follow a specified wording. Tourist accommodations in Nouakchott (e.g. Triskell, just around the corner) as well as letter writing service providers at the embassy have a sample ready. As a rule, you can pick up the letter from the embassy on the same day in the evening. Make a photocopy of this letter. Original + photocopy are handed in at the police counter when leaving Mauritania. The photocopy is retained, the original is stamped. As soon as you have the Mauritania exit stamp in your passport, you can take the ferry to the Senegalese side. The ferry is free; two ships shuttle back and forth. At the Senegalese border post, present your passport and the letter of recommendation from the Senegalese Embassy in Nouakchott. This document is now also stamped by the Senegalese side. This regulation applies exclusively to the Rosso border crossing; for all other border crossings Mauritania/Senegal no letter of recommendation from the Senegalese embassy is required. For a long time, travelers have complained about pushy helpers who want to offer you some kind of service in exchange for money, e.g. a ticket for the free ferry. It is best to only speak to people in uniform and ignore everyone else.

The city of Saint-Louis, bordering Mauritania, is located on the north-western coast of Senegal at the mouth of the Senegal River. It is the capital of the homonymous Senegalese region and has well over 200,000 inhabitants. Due to its location, Saint Louis is considered the Venice of Africa. The heart of the city is an elongated island separated from the mainland. The island is connected to the mainland via the 515 meter long Pont Faidherbe. Since the year 2000, the Île de Saint-Louis is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The Djoudj National Bird Sanctuary was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1981. The national park, located about 60 km northeast of Saint-Louis in the estuary of Senegal, is the third largest bird sanctuary in the world. Among the approximately 400 species in winter are the migratory birds of Europe, which meet here after crossing the Sahara on the first freshwater resources. In addition to a pelican colony, which counts more than 10,000 pelicans, also many other partially rare species are found here: flamingos, cormorants, crowned cranes, ospreys, storks and many more.
