The site was classified as UNESCO World Heritage on 30 June 2004. It was built in 1495 by Emperor Askia, Mohamed Askia, after his pilgrimage to Mecca. Very well preserved, it also houses the bodies of ten imams. The pyramid structure of the building, erect with piles, contrasts with the cubic architecture of the terrace houses. Déchaussez you before you enter. From the top of the tomb, we have a magnificent view of the city and the desert. The price of the visit is CFAF 1 500.
