Visit Kano State

Kano State is situated in the north-west of Nigeria, and is one of the country's most populous states. Home to both sandy plains and rolling hills, Kano State provides a unique landscape for visitors to explore. The ancient city of Kano attracts many tourists each year due to its impressive architecture and vibrant culture. It's also known for its serene gardens, grand masquerades, lively markets and other attractions that make it a must-visit destination. For those looking for an outdoor adventure, there are mining sites where visitors can pan for gold or take part in an archaeological dig at some old ruins perched high above the cityscape. Another popular attraction is Dando National Park - here people can observe some of Nigeria's wildlife such as antelopes, primates and birds while taking in breathtaking views across the countryside.

Kano State has a rich historical heritage stretching back centuries - it was once home to the ancient Hausa Empire which ruled until 1805 when British forces overthrew them after nearly 200 years of rule. Today Kano is considered one of Nigeria's oldest cities and is still renowned for its significant contributions to education, politics and agriculture throughout Nigerian history.
