  To the north lies the town of Cotonou Ganve, all 12 thousand. Residents who live in bamboo huts on stilts, scattered over several kilometers along the lake Nokue. In XVIII-century tribes Tofino built this unique village to protect it from the aggression of the Kingdom of Dahomey, and background, religious tradition which forbids soldiers to enter the water. Now buildings, restaurants, shops and even hotel rises 2 meters above the water. Local residents opposed to their photos, so it is advisable to abandon filming on the territory of Ganve.   I can complement the description
