Benin city, the intriguing capital of Edo state is a well deserving tourist attraction in Nigeria. It also the center of Nigeria’s rubber industry and palm nuts for oil. Amidst the richness of rubber and palm nuts lies these beautiful places you can explore when you pay a visit to Benin city.
THE OBA’S PALACE:
The Oba of Benin’s palace is a sight to behold. I don’t think there is anything more interesting than a palace.
A visit to Benin without a palace visit is like bread without butter because you will get trilled by the historic adornments and ornaments which are great sights to behold.
THE BENIN MOAT:
This is no new place as the Benin moat is one of the largest man-made earthworks in the world. It served as a defensive measure for invaders in the ancient Benin.
IGUN STREET:
The igun stret is a cultural and heritage site by unesco.This is a home to brass/bronze casting industries in Benin and a great tourist site.It is also an opportunity to witness bronze castings if you haven’t witnessed it before.
