SACRED CROCODILE POND
The pond is inhabited by a hundred crocodiles. Sacred saurians are amazingly attentive to the guide and his chicken; In addition to taking pictures, we have the opportunity to touch animals, emotions guaranteed! For sensitive souls who do not want to witness death by drowning chicken attached to a rope and thrown unwisely into the water as bait, it will be necessary to wait for the crocodiles' hour of approach or just one observation to the twin. In any case, the chicken will go to the pot sooner or later because the villagers feed their sacred crocodiles to whom they are owed. Indeed, a local legend claims that a thirsty warrior, ancestry of the inhabitants of the region, was once saved by a crocodile who gave him the water of a pond. Nearby, shops expose the artisanal productions of a nearby children's center. The objects, mostly decorative, are quite successful and original. A good opportunity to help these children by making fun. Attention to sellers, insistent…
The show is surprising and unique. The crocodiles are obeying and seem flexible. You could even touch their tail. Extraordinary!

Regarding Sabou, it is in my opinion more pleasant to get there from Koudougou because it is much closer (20 Miles) to Ouagadougou and you reach Sabou by a very picturesque track.
