Le tombeau des Askia : un voyage dans l’Histoire du Mali.

The cradle of a flourishing civilization, the Gao Empire was a true crossroads between the Sahel and the central Saharan regions. Founded in the 7th century, this city was ruled by several emperors, the most famous of whom was Askia Muhammad, who built the Tomb of Askia. This imposing monument is inspired by the Egyptian pyramids he discovered during his pilgrimage to Mecca. A cultural and historical treasure of Mali, the Tomb of Askia transcends time and space, reminding future generations of the importance of this legendary empire.
