About Burkina Faso

The climate is either hot and dry or hot and wet. The West African Franc is what you need in your wallet or purse to spend in this land locked state in West Africa. If need to call someone, then start dialling with +236 to chat to someone here.

You will need to brush up on your French to be able to chat with the local population of Burinabe. There are also three local languages spoken. Cotton, livestock and gold are the main exports.

Not to be found in your standard travel brochure, it does attract the hardy tourist. The international airport is at the capital and has the IATA code of OUA. Mt Tenakourou is the highest point at under 800 meters tall. Agriculture and mining are major employers. Gained independence from France in 1960. Consists of two parts going from plains to a higher sandstone area and has a few lakes to go and see.

The capital of Burkina Faso goes by the tongue twisting name of Ouagadougou.(try Wag-a-do-goo).

Did you Know - There are three rivers called Volta running through the country. Red, White and Black.

The Stallions is the name of the national football team, but they also enjoy other sports here, such as rugby, basketball and many more. The majority are believed to be of Islamic faith, with Christianity not far behind, although seems some people may combine a healthy mix of both.

Sixteen million people live here, give or take.
