Before the troubles, I always wanted to go clubbing in Abidjan. I'd still like to check out the nightlife in Dakar and Libreville. Is it just me or are a lot of those women prostitutes?

Abidjan is still THE most fancy clubbing scene in West Africa (although Dakar and Lagos are catching up quickly), it has been it for a long time (surprisingly, the crisis didn´t change that much..you find a broad array from maquis to top-end). Abidjan.net where I sourced the pics from regulary features stories and shows of partying week-end people (there are events in many places, ALL pics are recent ones)....these are normal women. Bear in mind that Abidjanais girls love to dress up , it is said and rumoured that Abidjanais people (women and men alike) are among Africa´s best dressed people, very brand-conscious and fashionabale folk...(watch an Ivorian soap to know it or go to Abidjanais restaurants, shops, bars etc.) My parents still remember that some Ivorian women (and have to be more precise Abidjan people) went to exclusive restaurants wearing furs back in the 1980´s (consider it, it is a tropical country!!)...those restaurants were considerably swanky, classy and air-conditioning was extremely cold.

Popa1980, a movie that depicts Abidjan´s life is "le Pari de l´Amour" (relased 2001)...it is basically mirroing life shown on these pics...there is another one " Cache Cache d´Amour"

Beauty is all a matter of taste, for me they look lovely (at least 90%)..in Francophone Africa Ivorians are known to be the most stylish people, they do anything to look good and shiny..and they have a lot of taste, sad that this country doesn´t have Russia´s or Saudi´s oil wealth..producing 10 million barrels of oil A DAY for a population of just 17 million ....that city would "kill" every night-clubber, glitz, pomp and glamour.

Thanks Mwafrika so sad that the country lost to many years due to crisis..but once the election is over this country will come back.

Abidjan was the in-capital of West and Central Africa (concerning of most fancy clubs and posh restaurants)...but as you can see on the pics (which are all recent), it still lives up to it somehow. (although Lagos and Dakar are catching up speedily..and Libreville is also pretty tight with lots of stylish people)
