Built in the 1920s when Nigeria was under the British, the hotel is an oasis of peace hidden in Tafawa Balewa Rd between Bompai Rd and Murtala Muahammed Way. The beautiful and airy restaurant (chess floor and solid wooden doors) has the sleepy charm of a place that went through so much, and nonetheless is still there. Hausa-owned and managed since a couple of generations, the Hotel the France was built and originally owned by… yes, a French family.

Chief Olusegun Obasanjo Flyover is the longest flyover in West Africa and one of the longest if not the longest in Africa as a whole. The fly-over located at the Central Business Area of Sabon Gari, Kano - an urban setting that has mostly non-indigenes as its habitat is pretty a fantastic destination for mild adventure. A place located in Northern Nigeria and populated mostly by the Muslims. The said flyover has different route that provide assessable road channels that does not just make road links possible but lessen road congestion and foster quick arrival to one's destination. The hustling and bustling nature of the scene, the varieties of goods and food items sold, the manner, language (Hausa) and way of life of the people, the common and most consumed diet, are all worth the experience. #Culture.
