Dakar: A City Full of Color

Here in Dakar, it seems that the entire urban landscape is full of color: The walls, the sidewalks, the transport, houses and buildings, as well as the bright clothes of urban dwellers themselves. For example, the bright contrast between the light brown sands of this Sahelian city and the azure sky. The walls dressed in its history of graffiti, murals and mosaics. Property owners of each house and building design the small sidewalk spaces in front of their buildings, assembling boldly colored tiles in reds, blues, yellows and oranges. The urban scene is a mix of colors:
