    Informative about the history of Cotonou, there is a library, a play field for children, and viewing centre. There's boarding available. Language researchers come here often

    Lovely, and beautiful. Got to know more on the history of Benin, and Cotonou. Had a WAX exhibition too.

    The concept of Foundation Zinsou is amazing. Every 4 months, a new story is told with images and other materials. During my visit, the story was about African materials known as "Hollandis" and it was very informative. You need to understand French or go with an interpreter as the guide speaks just French.
