What travelers are saying
- BobWEManhattan Beach, CA746 contributionsLocated near the Abidjan city center is the newly constructed Catholic Cathedral. The inside of the church is large with seating arranged in a 180 degree configuration that is tiered so all attendees have an unobstructed view of the alter area. The massive stained glass windows are beautiful. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the city center area.Written April 27, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- AnaPrataDiasCostaLisbon, Portugal516 contributionsThe inconspicuous entrance to the park, just off the highway, does not give away what you will find past the gates. Around 5 minutes into the walk, completely surrounded by nature, the sound of the bustling city starts to fade away and you slowly adapt and take-in the sounds of nature, birds chirping and leaves rustling under the soft rain. My guide spoke no English and we had to make do with my (very) elementary French. He told me about some of the plant and tree species, but he was not a very chatty fellow. I asked a few questions about the governor who once lived in the park -- his house nowadays is where the "museum" is located. It has a few monkey and crocodile skulls, an elephant skull, and some information on the park (only in French). If you want to visit it, you have to ask the guide, as he needs to get the key. Take comfortable shoes, as the shortest trail is 7km long (but it's fairly easy). People are allowed to have a picnic (and make a barbecue) in the park, and, if permission is given, you can also put up a tent for the night. There is a playground for the kids near the picnic area. Entry fee for non-ECOWAS (Economic Community of West African States) is 5000 CFA + 10000 CFA for the guide, which I considered expensive. My guided tour took around an hour and a half, which I consider short, especially for the price paid, but do not regret going, as it was good way to spend the morning and take some time off from the bustling vibe of Abidjan. Mind that if you need to take a taxi there, it is virtually impossible to hail one at the entrance when you are finished, so I would suggest that you agree with your driver to wait for you.Written October 15, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- LaWanda BAtlanta, GA13 contributionsSeems like a busy business district. Lots of moving parts. Beautiful tall buildings and nice architecture.Written January 20, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- ShimnikDelft, The Netherlands7,022 contributionsIf you are anyway in Plateau district, it makes sense to see the mosque but I would not go there just for the mosque. It is pretty difficult to take a good photo of the building, because of other buildings around. It is quite a modern structure.Written November 25, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Miles ArcherBoca Raton, FL7,192 contributionsI spent a couple of hours walking around here taking in the sights and sounds. Mostly locals were here. I came to observe, not to buy anything. I did talk, in French or English, with some people working here.
