Beautiful market! I love all the colourful printed clothing everyone wears! Also my husband likes your shirts . The sandwich you got looked yummy. Love avocado. Thanks for filming.

Motorcycles are used in Cameroon too for public transportation
In Nigeria we call them Okada, in benin it is zem or zemidjan.
How is it called in Cameroun ?
@@Ludo_Liu bendskin derived from a Cameron traditional dance but most people call it okada
I see most of the people gave vending stands ,unlike TOGO the people are out in groves , and business is booming , this reminds me of Lagos Nigeria.and they don't worry about robbers
thanks a lot for this comment
Plz south africa 🇿🇦 Is waiting
i think i'll go there again one day, I don t know when unfortunately, i really enjoyed my stay there !
I miss my country Haiti
That's one busy market!
ohhh yes, really, one of the busiest I saw these last months

Thanks so much, I am very glad you came-back to watch the walking and shopping part !
I wish you a great week !
Cotonou...👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
A great day Ludo, loved your trip through .the market. We call them Swap Meet in Arizona, Tiianguis in Mexico. So busy, active, lots of vendors. The baguette you had is one of my favorites with shredded chicken breast. Thanks again, stay safe.
I love these sandwich too, and i particularly like them with avocados and salad.
I wish you a great week ahead
In the queue, can't wait.
Thanks for sharing your video from the other part of the world. Women rules in the market. 😊 The lovely clothings they wear, so colorful. The designs are awesome.
💖Iloilo City, Philippines
Yes, you are right ladies are in charge here in the market, and they are really elegant
Thanks Ludo for this episode! Loved watching from the beginning since I missed most of the live from watching from the beginning😌. Loved your walk in the market and your explanation on how it works and how women contribute in the tax system to keep such market operating!

Hey Ludo!
It seems to me that you enjoyed to walk around in market.
It’s so generous gift for your daughters! I’m sure 2 girls are so happy!!
It’s crowded in market. I think almost every countries from around the world 🌎 have “Flea markets”.
I have great experience with Flea markets in my area. We actually paid with cash. Dealers aren’t accept credit cards.
Hope to see you next great adventure videos in Africa!!!! 🇧🇯 🇹🇬 🇳🇬
OOOh yes, I missed big market, you know that i really loe that !

Hello I was glad by this trip to Dantokpa Market,a very busiest and greta market like others markets in big west african cities
I love chatting with the market ladies... always my favorite part of town in any African city..
once more time, we have something in common here !
thanks for your support !
I review the time it takes you to go through the whole market, sir. I don't believe it is larger than the one in Onitsha excepting for the notion of being "open market", that makes your statement very correct to say the least.
Thank you once again, sir.
thanks a lot for watching and taking time to comment once more
Very interesting and cheers 🥰🙏🤩🙏

West Africa 🌍 largest Market is in Onitsha, Anambra state Nigeria
Second largest is Ariaria Market,Aba in Eastern Nigeria 🇳🇬, Abia State. And many more in Nigeria 🇳🇬.
i am not sure of that,. yes it is described as the biggest in some articles and dantokpa in some others. if someone could find the size of onitsha market we could be sure of that, I couldn' t find the exact info.
I know dantokpa is around 20 hectares.
Thanks you for sharing the video of the largest west Africa market called DANTOKPA in Bénin republic. I inform you that it will be demolished in months to come because a New one very Big, and modern is under construction in North of Cotonou ( Calavi city). More than 160 hectares of surface with of kinds of facilities and commodities. Thanks for the good job
thanks so much for the warm comment and the information, I didn ' t know they planned to move the market to Calavi ! Hope it will be working fine !
thanks so much for the contribution
I enjoy most of your videos I remember visiting this market in Cotonou this year!
Glad you like them! thanks a lot Sir !
@@Ludo_Liu You are welcome Sir.
Love these series! Greetings from Sierra Leone.
Hello there! thanks so much for the warm message and the greetings
I really enjoyed watching this video. thanks a lot
Glad you enjoyed it!, thank you very much, please feel free to subscribe to see more of these
Visits to the market place are some of my favorite places to go. Not necessarily just to buy anything, but more so to enjoy the people and the activity. It is amazing how beautiful and colorful with varying designs and patterns the women's dresses are. Some of the men also have on colorful shirts and pants I would like to have in my wardrobe. The vendors don't appear to be customer friendly. I am used to being greeted with a big smile and a welcoming introduction from the seller.
Totally agree!, i have the same feelings here ! I enjoy going to markets ... not always to buy...
just to feel the life
thanks so much for the continuous support !
I wish you a very happy sunday
Nice bright & beautifully made video 🎥

oui, c'est clair, mais une fois la motogérée comme je l'ai fait, c'est ensuite super de se balader à pied.
merci du soutien Martin,bonne semaine à toi!
The path is very narrow but the food looks like it came from heaven.
definitively a must try the Beninese sandwich !
@@Ludo_Liu Lol! If ever I am there I will remember to try one.
Beautiful, thanks for sharing

essa fera e muito grande e tudo que se procura tem e muito bom eu gosto muito de ver seus vídeos ❤
Thanks a lot for watching
Amazing interaction with the vendors in an awesome portrayal of the hustle-bustle and nitty-gritty of market life. I like the sub-titles ’from time to time. Giving us a feel for what is being said among the sellers. Great feel Ludo Liu 2. Keep the great effort up.
Thanks so much I really appreciate to read such an encouraging feedback. Hope you will like the next travel serie coming next week
that's beautiful
Hi Ludo, surprised you have only 35K subscribers, should have been about 3 million by now considering the good quality of your vids, but well done & 👍🏼 from India.
Maybe one day! you can help me to grow the audience by sharing the video
Love these walks through the markets! Love the colorful clothes. Many dress very beautifully. I wonder if they wash their clothes by hand or do they have washing machines?
i do use the same fabrics, I wash them in washing machine...
the colors are lasting some time, but will gradually fade away after dozens of washing
The bulk of them wash it by hand
Authentic
thank you !!
good job.
Thank you! Cheers!
Franchement tu fais trop rire quand tu à dire à la vendeuse du pain avocat c'est le prix du yovo à 500cfa le pain au benin coûte 500cfa jamais 200fca j'habite en France je suis beninoise. Ma fille aîné adore cette sandwich avocat c'est la première des choses qu'elle mange dès qu'elle vienne à cotonou. Un conseil le benin ne regarde pas le teint du client ils sont vraiment honnête 🤣🤣🤣👨👩👧👧🙏🏾
bonjour, merci d'avoir jeté un oeil à la vidéo et d'avoir pris le temps de laisser un commentaire.
J'habite à 80 km du Bénin, où je suis très très souvent. Et la plupart du temps, je paye le sandiwh 200 d'où ma réponse.
@@Ludo_LiuÇa dépend du contenu!
Thank you for sharing this video. Never been to Benin 🇧🇯 😕
You’re welcome 😊 it's a lovely country
Where are you from?
@@hugo-di6xm sierra leone 🇸🇱
Ludo, I hope you can find a toilet near by after eating those foods since you are not local eating the foods. It looks to me as if some of those Republic of Benin market women are not friendly or they may not know anything about good customer service. I hope your daughters Lulu and Lea like the presents you bought for them.
i think i can consider myself as a local after around 15 years eating street food in Africa... Yes, maybe i was not lucky that day, the ladyies look cold, maybe they were just tired... Usually sellers are really friendly over here
Thank you, sir
Most welcome
Hello Ludo, very good job!
When are you going to come in NIGER republic?
I was actually speaking about it today, with a friend from Niger... i don t know yet
@@Ludo_Liu okay, that's good
Merci du partage.
merci beaucoup d'aoir jeté un oeil à cette video et de la soutenir grace à ce un commentaire !
Amazing how motorbikes are aloud along side the people walking but somehow it works. It would be carnage in Europe....
yes mostly it is always very smooth, everybody adjust in a perfect organized chaos
@@Ludo_Liu They have their system.
yes and everything is very smooth
I gave a question , so the venders gave to pay taxes to the government
i think they do, to have their space in the market
Ludo, I see the sellers they are not happy to see you 😂😮
yep, they were not really smiley that day
Most African country is the same market
Why Africa President can copy this markets by building nice and clean market places for our people
thanks a lot for watching and commenting !
Hi Ludo 😀 you shouldn't ride your bike in middle of The market ,That Market is big😂. Long roads
Why not?

thanks for watching !!!
I would have to carry a flask of strong spirits around to sip during every meal to keep the tummy from getting upset. Seems nobody practices basic hygiene when preparing food. That guy handled money and your sandwich in the same hand. I would be the perpetually drunk tourist.
Hhahahah it is just a matter of habit or training. Thanks a lot for watching
Too much hygiene makes weak.However you're right.
Some people stomach strong bad
this is just a matter of habit
thanks a lot for watching and commenting !
Hi Cotonou is not the capital of Benin its Porto Novo, but Cotonou is the principal city.
👍🏾
Thanks yes you are right. Porto novo is the administrative capital
Both Cotonou and Porto-Novo are Capitals!

Thank u
amazing textiles. Are they especially grumpy today, or are the vendors always this unhappy with you?
i think i had bad luck that day, usually people are very smiley...
the heat was extreme that day, maybe it doesn ' t help too
Women seem unfriendly because of the stress and thieves that the're exposed to...Just like street life.
finally the bracelets, were they the right size?
yes they were really fine, my two daughters love them
how many km have you put on your motorcycle since you bought it?
this one around 10 000 since i bought it... not much
What motorcycle brand do you ride? What camera do you use?
i Use a 200qlink and a gopro
Great coverage. I liked the video. The vendeurs didn't look to friendly though. Is that a general thing or because you are foreigner?
they usually are, maybe they were not in their best day..
i didn't have the same feeling on ground but while editing i felt that too.
How do these markets work? do they arrive very early and bring the stuff in from elsewhere and do they pack everything away after closing or are they permanently set up?
I am not 100 percent sure, these are suppositions. I think they pack their stuf around for the night and come the day after... , they have their fixed spot where they are everyday
🫡🇱🇰❤️ nice brother
thank you so much
15:29 : She is not very nice, I would walk away and buy somewhere else...
She said « He is recording people. He is recording us. Goodness » she probably doesn’t want to be recorded but did not want to lose a customer reason why she was uncomfortable and speaking with ludo that way. Otherwise they are friendly un that market
You are not showing the vegitabels are fruits try to show them with cost (in dollers or local price) & about food also good then culture also try for it
i hae triedbfood in that episode, and unfortunately i cannot show all the market's products, would take days
thanks for watching
