Petit Musée du Fouta Djallon

Guinea


The Petit Musée du Fouta Djallon is a quiet spot, where you learn about the region's unique Fula culture. Many of the items are displayed in small tableaux, which makes it all a bit more interesting. If the museum is locked, head around the back to the owner's house and they'll come and open up.
