My beautiful home town ! Osogbo Ilu aro,oroki asala ! If you wanna see and feel nature at its best,just go to Osun grove with its arrays of artistic and natural attractions.

The woman that served as a Guide to the Op obviously lacked some critical information about the Grove. For instance ,the bridge is called "Amititi" by the locals because it vibrates as you move on it and that can be a bit unnerving !

Here is a link if you're interested in knowing more about Osun Osogbo grove. https://nextbiteoflife.com/historic-osun-osogbo-sacred-grove/

Omo Osogbo ni mi,mo feran eko ati efo yanrin ! Be a Wole Soyinka and translate that to English language, lol !

Blackman! Must oyinbo do everything for us? Why can't we preserve our heritage? We neglect n even destroy our beautiful environment tourism potentials, then spend $$ to go on tourism abroad.

Exactly, when you point out that they have defective thinking, they say no.

It took a white woman to fix it.

The same thing i keep saying about Nigeria, a land of opportunities full of miserable people. grin

Those herbs are valuable, whites use some of our herbs. Infact, in Europe, some white prefer herbs most of the time, some don't use the medicines big pharma makes
I’m not against herbs,I was just cracking joke with him.

It is a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is one of the two world Heritage sites in Nigeria.

This place was renovated and remodelled by an Austrian Artist called Susan Wenger. She made most of the artworks here which some are as old as 60 years. She fell in love with this place after she visited the place with her husband as a tourist. When it was time for them to go back, she decided to stay, she embraced the Yoruba Traditional religion and ever since she became one of the forest custodians.

She lived all her life in Osogbo and she died in 2009 at the age of 93.

She started a movement to restore the dignity of the forest by preventing encroachment and poaching at this sacred grove.
