@cityarchitecturegang_fr: Ganvié, located in Benin, West Africa, often called the “Venice of Africa,” is a unique settlement built entirely on stilts over Lake Nokoué. Founded as a refuge, it has evolved into a living example of socio-ecological urbanism. Today, it faces growing tourism, environmental pressure, and shifts away from traditional building practices, but its water-based lifestyle still offers powerful lessons for future cities. #Ganvie #FloatingCity #Urbanism #Architecture #Sustainability #WaterArchitecture #Benin #FutureCities #EcoUrbanism
