Funded in 800 AD by merchants wh used it as a meeting place; the city develped quickly due t its lcatin near the river, which linked it t ther imprtant African cities such as Timbuktu. The city is still hme t a develped cmmunity f ver 30,000 peple and plays a central rle in the running f the lcal Mpti regin. The mst striking building in Djenne is its Great Msque(清真寺), which was built in 1906 and classified as a UNESCO Wrld Heritage site in 1988.

This frms part f an annual week-lng festival which shws the cultural imprtance f the building in the cmmunity as the biggest structure in the twn. The twn as a whle remains ne f the mst fascinating places t visit, nt just in Africa, but the wrld.
