Understand[edit]
Get in[edit]
By train[edit]
There are a few trains each week from Abidjan on their way to Ouagadougou and back but timetabling is pretty hit and miss.
- 1 Bouaké railway station (Gare de Bouaké).
By car[edit]
It takes 1.5 hours from Yamoussoukro. The road has deep potholes so care is needed. It would be wise not to try it at night because of the potholes.
Get around[edit]
See[edit]
- 1 St. Teresa of Infant Jesus Cathedral (Cathédrale Sainte-Thérèse de Bouaké). Seat of the archdiose, this cathedral is constructed in a brutalist architectural style.
