WPC: Sacred Heritage

Heritage
“valued objects and qualities such as historic buildings and cultural traditions that have been passed down from previous generations.”

Lagos has heritage, Culture and a Resilient people who have seen history and left their mark in so many ways. Historic buildings and sites litter the bustling city of Lagos and i had a great opportunity to visit them during the Open House Lagos 2017 Event. The SACRED SITES TOUR, even though short was a real eye opener.

The Holy Cross Cathedral is credited with being the birth place of Catholicism in Nigeria.

Hallo 😀
Welcome to an awesome new week, new goals and new possibilities. My weekend was super-charged if you were wondering. Filled moment to moment with lots of activities, honestly i slept like a stone each night…lool
Today i deliver on a promised post, What i was up to during the last Muslim / Sallah Holidays (Last week Mon&Tues).

I went for a friend’s small get-together, and had a nice view of the city on the long trip there without the accompanying traffic…phew, so over this week i’ll be posting different themes on the same trip.
What recent holiday trip have you made?
