Saint-Louis is the capital of Senegal’s Saint-Louis Region, located in the northwest of Senegal. The city was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2000 and cultural tourism has become an engine of growth. As a result of this, a process of gentrification has set in, with many historic buildings on the island being turned into restaurants and hotels. Also, 23rd edition of the annual Jazz Festival held in Saint Louis, which will be held from 20th to 25th May 2015.[KGVID width=”640″ height=”512″]http://www.primanews.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/Saint-Louis-of-Senegal.mp4[/KGVID]
