Tourist Attractions In Lagos - Lekki Conversation Center - Why You Should Visit

Despite having a smaller geographical mass than other states in Nigeria, Lagos is one of the most populated states in Nigeria. In other terms, it is the state with the highest population density—the number of people per unit area of land.

Lagos is a coastal metropolis that is divided into two distinct physical regions: Lagos Island and Lagos Mainland. One may already get a sense of how Lagos Island appears because it is entirely made up of water from the definition of an island, which is a piece of land surrounded by water.

In addition to their geographic separation, Lagos Island and the mainland have different racial and socioeconomic populations. Lands are therefore more than ten times more expensive on the Island, in addition to the fact that they are normally pricey in Lagos.

The Lekki Nature Conservation Center is a natural conservation center located within of an incredibly wealthy waterfront enclave.

One can already infer the conservative's focus from the words "nature" and "conservation." The center is one of the few locations where people may experience nature, get a broad overview of Nigerian vegetation types, and take in some picturesque sights to round out the experience and make the area as a whole traveler-worthy.

When you arrive, the cool, green surroundings and a few animal types, including both domesticated and tamed wild animals, are the first things you see.

The welcome area used to be populated by two elderly tortoises. But the last time I went there, I was unable to take a picture of the tortoises since, according to the information, they had been dead for more than 50 years.

A visitor must pay the required price which is 1,000 naira around 10 STEEM at the current price of STEEM in order to enter the center, which is located at the entrance gate right before the reception. Depending on the activities that a person wanted to engage in within the conservatory, the amount changed. Regular touring is included in the standard cost, but using the pool and crossing the hanging bridge are extra.

The canopy walkway, which is the longest on the African continent, is located beyond the entrance. There are different kinds of walks:

• The Wooden Walkway: The wooden walkway has handrails.

• The Hanging Canopy Walkway: This is a constructed metal and rope hanging walkway

The Wooden Walkway

A mangrove forest with red and white mangroves, as well as some woody species from the rainforest, is overhanging the wooden walkway. The brackish mangrove habitat water is located underneath the wooded walkway. Occasionally, poisonous reptiles are found living in the handrails that support the wooden path. Therefore, it is usually recommended for visitors to avoid the wooden railings if feasible.

The Hanging Canopy Walkway

The entire conservatory and beyond are seen from the hanging walkway as you ascend before descending. As you travel across it, it creaks and swings in an odd direction.

If you have the courage to cross the hanging canopywalk, you will find a micro-savanna on the other side, distant from the main mangrove forest. After the excitement of climbing the hanging walkway, visitors can unwind in a hut-like relaxation facility that has been constructed nearby. A few games and recreation options, including a pool, are located beyond the hut. The beautiful chess board can also be found here.

The treehouse is also noteworthy. A little wooden home that can accommodate three to four people at once, depending on their weights, was constructed from the crown of a very large Parkia biglobosa tree. The bird-viewing house is an additional facility (I could not get a good picture, unfortunately).

If you're a tourist, I'd highly recommend going to Lekki Conversation Center. The entrance fee is reasonable, and you can play chess on a large chess board while admiring the view of lush vegetation from a hanging canopy walkway. A large pool, as well as seeing various creatures, including monkeys, all for a very reasonable cost.
