Tour Afrika, or African Tower, which is considered a symbol of Africa. The monument inside which is the museum, calls for Africa to unite against the colonial order and is one of the most important symbols of Mali.
Residents of Mali, one of the important countries of the “Black Continent”, are waiting for the speedy end of conflicts and riots in the north of the country and the development of their state.
Tour Afrika, built in 2008 on the uprising against the colonial order and foreign intervention in Bamako, where the Niger River originates, continues to be one of the symbols of the city.

The body of the tower 46 meters high, made in the form of a Baubab tree, which occupies an important place in Africa, attracts attention with its design, symbolizing solidarity, unity and mutual assistance.
A bowl with holes rising above the hands of African young people on top, says that only young people can close the holes, united. The tower also depicts a map of Africa.
On the first four floors of the tower are wall murals and a library, telling about the regional and cultural wealth of Africa, as well as information about the African rulers who rebelled against the colonial order. From the observation terrace on the 10th floor of the tower, a panoramic view of Bamako opens.
Tour Africa, which is the place of the meeting of the Malines, especially on holidays, is surrounded by the flags of 54 African countries and the African Union.
In a country where electricity is often turned off, the tower and its environs are covered in the evenings when there is electricity. Around the tower located at a wide intersection, life flows non -stop.
