We reached there around 11 am last Sunday when the Sunday Mass was on. This gave us an opportunity to experience the basilica while there was a mass going on & enjoy the choir & the lovely acoustics both inside & outside the Basilica. Around 12 noon the mass gets over & you are then free to take a guided tour which is very highly recommended. Our guided tour in English started around 12.30 pm. You have to buy ticket for the tour at the office/ restaurant area to the left soon after the entrance gate. Our guide was knowledgeable & told us a lot of facts about the basilica. The tour also takes you to the higher level, to the viewing gallery, after climbing 196 steps inside a hollow pillar in the church ( elevators were not working). This allows you to have a fantastic view of the inside of the church from a very different perspective and also gives you a 360 degree view of the outside area where you can see the town in distance & greenery all around from a height. The other advantage is that you are allowed to take photographs of inside the church from the viewing gallery ... but not from the ground level. So please do climb the 196 steps .. it is worth it. Do take a walk in the garden area also ..towards the other closed gate beyond the pillar enclosed circular area from where you will get a fantastic view of the whole basilica. This is indeed a very impressive structure with amazing stained glass works, well worth the trip from Abidjan.

This is a beautiful building and the people there are so welcoming. Very moving experience. Strongly urge going when there is a mass going on; the participants are so moved by the service ... breathtaking.

It was fun. There are more crocodiles than other animals. But then it is a crocodile farm. Safe to visit with kids also.

A very beautiful and large Mosque in Plateau, Abidjan. When i went inside , it gave me inner satisfaction and i pray to Allah with bottom of my heart. This was the time in MAY-2016.
