Grand-Bassam, Ivory Coast
Old colonial town, crumbling in parts with lots of charm and character a photographers paradise. It’s known for its busy, palm-backed beach stretching along the Atlantic coastline. The old French-colonial town center, once the nation’s capital, is filled with decaying 19th- and 20th-century houses. The National Museum of Costume displays examples of traditional dress in a former governor’s palace.
