Lagos Travel Guide Edit This The best resource for sights, hotels, restaurants, bars, what to do and see Sunset over Apapa, Lagos Sunset over Apapa, Lagos Y. Frommer Lagos, in the context of geopolitical classification, is a metropolitan city. Lagos is one of the 36 federating states in Nigeria made up of 20 major towns and 24 villages. The multi-ethnic nature of the place made it hard to get a good grip on the the place. Most visitors who come to Lagos are here for business, and touristic infrastructure is lacking a bit. The huge city does have an interesting museum filled with replicas of some of the best African Art you can find in Europe and the US. There are good beaches nearby, and in places like Ikeja or in Bar Beach there is always something going on - even if it is just a huge "go slow". Beaches such as Alpha in Lekki, Wispering Palms in Badagry etc, are ideal places for fun seekers. _______Sights Edit This Although Lagos is a really huge city there are not many sights in the traditional sense of the word. There are interesting markets, there is one good museum but best is to just tour the city and enjoy the people. _________Practical Information Edit This Lagos is a beautiful city and there's a lot of fun to be had while there. However, please be careful. Corruption is rife and bribery is common place. Often you will be expected to offer a bribe. Please be careful of the locals who ask for cash in advance of services and goods. Often it is a scam and you will never receive the services or goods. If you hear the words "guyman", "barrister", "mugu" or "maga" mentioned then be very careful! These are terms often used by the "criminal element". As long as you "play it safe" and keep your money, credit cards, travellers cheques [checks], passport and other valuables safe then you're sure to have a great time in a colourful and entertaining city. _________Getting Around Edit This . [Add Local transport mode] Public Transport Edit This Public transport is virtually the only means for locals to get around. the majority not being able to afford a car. Considering 15 million people still try to get round the city. Still can mean 2 hours getting to/from work. In order of cheapness. Okada's (motorbikes) N20 ish for a ride. Most of the drivers must be drunk or high on something. Cheap, plentiful but risky. Yellow buses Old VW transporters never die. They are shipped to lagos, painted yellow with two blue stripes and put to work transport more..

The best night to go there is sunday. When Femi is outside of the country the place can be rather empty, however, so you might want to check if he is around. The Shrine is located in a quiet street in Ikeja. type: general World66 rating: [rate it] The Motherlan' Edit This Showcase of an African variation of mid tempo jazz.

Great night out type: Clubs and dancing World66 rating: [rate it] address: Idowu Taylor Street, Victoria Island, Lagos ClosingTime: 6 am Atlantic Bar Edit This Dreadfully load Afro-beat - great if you like that sort of thing. Your driver will know where it is, best to get there at midnight or so when you're already half drunk so you won't buy too many drinks. Just dance to the music, or hang out - you probably won't get hassled by hookers or dope dealers, unlike most other places. Not a bad place to hang out in Lagos, however watch out for those drinks prices, could end up spending a small fortune, even for Nigerian standards. type: Clubs and dancing World66 rating: [rate it] Bar Beach Edit This Bar Beach is one of the best spots to go at night. The name gives a pretty accurate description of the place: there is a long row of bars along the beach. The atmosphere is nice. It is not a nude beach, can be dangerous for swimming and I certainly would not go there at night if I was black or white. Its a rough part of town, with many area boys (hoodlums) and other gangsters. type: Clubs and dancing World66 rating: [rate it] La Casa Edit This Good place to boogie. The music on a Friday is more old school though still very good. The setting is very modern and trendy. type: Clubs and dancing World66 rating: [rate it] Soul Lounge Edit This The music is good, there are people dancing, though no designated dance floor area. There is outdoor seating, which is much less crowded than the inside, which has limited space. type: Pubs World66 rating: [rate it] address: Palms Mall __________Festivals Edit This ATURANSE STREET CANIVAL Is one of the Chrstmas Festivals that holds every 31st of Decenber.The carnival is is popularly Known as ATURANSE STREET JAMZ and people comes from all over the world to withness these.
