Allure Tourism: Destination Nigeria

November 26,2018
Share:

Nigerians travel out to see the world, visiting beautiful, breath-taking places in other countries and continents, forgetting that the country also boasts of amazing tourist sites.

There are hundreds of beautiful tourist sites in Nigeria. We have compiled a short list of our favourite places of interest to visit during the Yuletide.

Yankari National Park, Bauchi State

This park, otherwise known as Yankari Game Reserve, is on an area of more than 2,000 square kilometres where you can watch animals in their natural environment, enjoy its wonderful savannah and simply relax after long months of work. Yankari National Park would be a great destination for people who enjoy ecotourism.

Visitors to the park can climb the many hills or watch elephants, lions, monkeys and many other animals who are able to live freely. You can find the park in Bauchi State, 225 kilometres East of Jos, Plateau State.

Ikogosi Warm Springs, Ekiti State

This place is one of the most peculiar spots in Nigeria. The small town of Ikogosi located in Ekiti State became famous because of this natural phenomenon. The spring bears a point where its warm spring meets cold spring but the two springs maintain their respective temperatures consistently! You and your loved ones can stay at a resort near the spring which will enable you to enjoy the scenery for longer than just one day.

Ogbunike Caves, Anambra State

Located in Ogbunike, Anambra State, the site consists of numerous caves. Local people have always considered this location to have deep spiritual significance. Thus, visitors to the caves have to take their shoes off before touring the caves. The cave system is strewn with streams, rivers and small lakes!

The area surrounding the caves is covered with thick rain forests. The whole site is absolutely fantastic and definitely worth the visit.

Zuma Rock in Abuja

The rock ranks high as a choice tourist attraction in the country. Zuma Rock, the monolithic Isenberg with a human face, is located in Madalla, Niger State to the North of Abuja.

It was once described as the unquestionable watchman of the F.C.T. It is the sandy concealment that hangs like a haze over Zuba Town.

Kajuru Castle, Kaduna State

Kajuru Castle is a luxury Medieval-German style villa, built over 3 decades ago, located in Kaduna State.

The villa is designed with bedrooms modelled after dungeons and several towers with crenellated walls.

There’s also an outdoor swimming pool for cooling off on hot days. From the pool area and most of the castle windows, you will enjoy a fascinating view of the surrounding mountains and isenbergs. The castle also has its own sauna!

Tarkwa Bay Beach, Lagos State

Tarkwa Bay Beach is a sheltered beach located near the Lagos harbour. It’s popular with swimmers and water-sports enthusiasts. It is also home to a welcoming resident community. You’ll love this beautiful island that is far removed from the hustle and bustle of Lagos.

Tarkwa Bay Beach, unlike most public beaches in Lagos, isn’t often noisy or overcrowded. This makes it a great place for some alone time with your significant other or perhaps a fun day out with your friends.

If you are looking for a quiet, romantic time, you should visit Tarkwa Bay Beach on a weekday. Though Tarkwa Bay Beach is a small and lesser visited beach, many fun seekers visit it during weekends, public holidays and festive seasons.

Obudu Cattle Ranch in Cross River State

Obudu Mountain Resort, formerly known as Obudu Cattle Ranch, is one of the most beautiful and pleasant tourist destinations in Nigeria. Located on the Obudu plateau, close to the Cameroon border in the North Eastern part of Cross River State, this resort has grown to become a major destination choice for tourists.

The rooms at Obudu Mountain Resort are made up of chalets, standard rooms, executive rooms, huts and presidential suites.

Although this resort is open to visitors throughout the year, the period between October and February is the best time to visit as it is the time the sky is very bright and the air is frosty.

The New Afrika Shrine in Lagos State

This is an open-air entertainment centre located in Ikeja, Lagos State. It serves as the host location of the annual Felabration Music Festival in honour of afrobeat legend, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti. Currently managed by Femi Kuti and Yeni Anikulapo-Kuti the New Afrika Shrine serves as a replacement of the old Afrika Shrine created in 1970 by Fela Kuti before it was burnt down in 1977.

It also showcases photo galleries of Fela and musical performances by Femi Kuti and Seun Kuti. Lovers of art and entertainment should enjoy.
