About Yamoussoukro
Yamoussoukro is the capital city of Côte d'Ivoire, in West Africa. It's inland, northwest of the country's economic and cultural hub, the coastal city of Abidjan. It's known for the enormous Basilica of Our Lady of Peace of Yamoussoukro, with its stained-glass windows and towering dome. The city is the birthplace of 20th-century president Félix Houphouët-Boigny, whose former palace has a crocodile-filled lagoon.
