Das Eigentum — Chez Djami Ouaga
Chez Djami Ouaga has the feel of a well-run compound hotel popular with NGO workers and savvy business travellers. The lobby is modest, with tiled floors and a reception desk that doubles as a small shop. Rooms are clean but basic, with air conditioning and mosquito nets as standard. It suits a no-fuss traveller who wants reliable WiFi, a pool to cool off in, and easy access to the airport and city centre.
Chroniken von Ouagadougou
Ouagadougou was originally a village of the Mossi people before becoming the capital of the Mossi kingdom in the 15th century. French colonial rule from the late 19th century reshaped the city with broad boulevards and administrative buildings. After independence in 1960, it grew rapidly, blending modernist blocks with traditional market quarters. Today it's a cultural hub, home to the biennial FESPACO film festival and the sprawling Grand Marché. Its relaxed, low-rise character and tree-lined streets give it a surprisingly village-like feel for a capital.
