Lekki Market ( 17 pics )





Lekki (Lekki) is a craft, in fact, a gift bazaar in Lagos, there are many buyers visiting Europeans, especially the Chinese. Such markets are in all major cities in Africa and throughout Africa a part of the range on them is very similar, and the rest - a specific spot. Therefore, the local part is represented widely, the market interesting for the author, as a component of the Pan-African he was quite familiar.

Here, for example, if you see a wooden figurines, painted in red color, it is almost certain they are from Kenya. Drums, djembe, especially quality, from Senegal, Ghana and Guinea. Although now they are doing in Indonesia, but it is certainly not that. Masks renowned DR Congo, the Congolese masks sold in Djibouti. Bead Crafts - Zulu or Zimbabwean.

And the bazaar of local Lekki, Nigeria, what I saw, perhaps, the most interesting are the Yoruba sculpture in bronze. And like the original local puppets. So let's take a stroll through the market and see the vendors and their products.
