Cemetery in Fadiouth Island, Senegal, Africa
Fadiouth Island, Senegal. The reason that Joal-Fadiouth is on the tourist map is because Fadiouth, the second half of this excitingly duplicitous town, is perched on an island that's made almost entirely of clam shells. This, coupled with a strong Christian influence, makes Fadiouth a slightly off-key destination (for Senegal at least), and even more interesting is a second clam-shell island, linked to Fadiouth by a second bridge, which is home to hundreds of Christian graves, The cemetery also is covered in sea shells and is a unique visit as both Muslims and Christians are buried near each other which is a rare occurrence in the world.
