Abuja Walking Tour

Abuja, Nigeria

Why Walk Abuja

Abuja replaced Lagos as Nigeria's capital in 1991, designed from scratch as a symbol of national unity. The city's monumental architecture — including the striking Nigerian National Mosque and National Christian Centre facing each other — rises from a landscape of granite inselbergs and savanna. Aso Rock, a massive 400-meter monolith, dominates the skyline.
