The Voodoo Lands of Togo and Benin
Submitted by pablo on 2006-12-11 23:36:26 (via www.xenophilia.net)
I’ve surely heard about voodoo, and I would’ve certainly loved to use it on some people (ha), but I’ve never assisted to a real voodoo ceremony. Now I know I shouldn’t miss my chance to do it if I ever go to Africa. And if I get to visit with the King himself, like this article’s author did, I can consider myself a happy traveler:).

PABLO submitted a nice article and i will like to add a comment with regard to my 17 yrs stay in Benin republic. Benin republic formally known by name as DAHOMEY is a more or less a tourist center where any tourist will find interesting. The tour through and fro PORTO-NOVO, ALADAH, AGBOMEY,etc... was a wonderful experience of which am encouraging anyone interested in a tour through Benin to get Embarked. Its really a wonderful place to visit...

that does sound impressive.. Are voodoo practices that popular among natives as this article describes them?
