MOSQUE AND KARAMOKO ALPHA FOUNDATION

The mosque, of modern construction, has replaced the original straw mosque. These four white and blue minarets that rise majestically to the sky dominate the entire city.

Just next door, the Karamoko Alpha Foundation welcomes visitors who would like to learn more about the history of the former capital of theocratic Fouta. For the price of a cola, as we say here, the descendant of the last almamy or one of the elders of Timbo tells anyone who wants to hear about this glorious past.
