Touba, a visit to prepare

Encounter a city of spirituality, with the time and respect it calls for.

Touba, in the Diourbel region, is a centre of the Mouride brotherhood and home to its great mosque. Prepare this visit with someone who knows the place: ask about accessible spaces, expected dress and photography customs. Leydimen suggests making it a dedicated stop after the Games, with transport and a welcome arranged.
