When you approach Mopti you see the silhouet of the large mud-brick mosque at your left hand side at the opposite of the water. The mosque is towering over the old city.

The mosque is enclosed by the surrounding houses, so you have only a good view of the mosque from some distance.

The market of Mopti: real Africa. On te banks of the Niger river where its waters melt with a tributary, big blocks of salt are aligned. They have traveled for thousands of Km's to arrive here: from inner Sahara to Timbouctou with camel caravans, and from Timbouctou along the river to Mopti. Close to the blocks, wmen sell smoked fish.

This is a picture I'm very proud of - it summons up the feelings of the local women towards tourists.
The front woman says 'Dare take me'
The second one says 'Don't you dare'
And the third one says 'Pay if you dare'

Mali is one of the poorest countries in the world (I think it's number 5) but you wouldn't believe it when you see the women passing by on the streets.

They look well fed, not tiny....but this must be a typical Western opinion
