As a plane slides to land in Senegal, the most exceptional component is the African Renaissance landmark that remains at 49 meters. A gigantic show-stopper sits on Mamelles Hill and gives guests an all-encompassing perspective on both Dakar and the sea. The sculpture is intended to address, in the expressions of previous President Wade, "Africa's latent capacity, resurrection, and freedom for quite a long time of obliviousness, narrow mindedness and prejudice". In spite of the fact that there was a lot of discussions encompassing it during its development, today it the home of a few art stores, displays, and gallery spaces holding mementos of African and African diaspora history, and the best perspectives on Dakar and the encompassing sea. A 30-kilometer drive from Dakar will prompt Lake Retba or Lac Rose, which as the French name recommends, is pink in shading. On bright days because of a specific sort of green growth called Dunaliella salina, this saline lake mirrors a pink tone yet on overcast days it seems dim. Along the shores of the lake are various small-scale salt slopes by the Senegalese salt harvesters who utilize conventional salt gathering methods to make their day-by-day bread. In the event that guests center they are free to swim or kayak in the lake. A plunge in the saltwater is restorative for one's skin.
