Although
Timbuktu is not the capital of Mali, it is better known
than capital city Bamako. Timbuktu is known as the City
of Mysteries, and the City of the 333 Saints. Salt comes
into Timbuktu
from
the North, gold comes from the South, money comes from
the West, but it is said that real hospitality is only
found in Timbuktu.
It
sounds like a very mysterious place, but life here may
not be as different as you think. Visit Timbuktu
with us and find out what is different and strange
but also what is familiar
