-------------------------------
Banfora is a city in south western Burkina Faso with a population of around 50,000 people. It has grown around the sugar cane industry. The city lies 85 km south-west of Bobo-Dioulasso, on the Abidjan – Ouagadougou railway. The main ethnic groups are the Bobo and the Senufo.
It is one of the main tourist destinations in Burkina Faso, providing easy access to the waterfalls, the hippo-filled lake of Tengrela and the Peaks of Sindou - a unique natural-rock formation, popular with climbers.
