Sightseeing in Benin

Benin excites everybody's love for the mysterious and unfamiliar with its title, ‘the cradle of voodoo’ but it is hardly the place to visit for historical or architectural splendours.

Climate of Benin

Benin's climate is hot and humid. Annual rainfall in the coastal area averages 1,360 mm (53.5 in), not particularly high for coastal West Africa.
