Top neighborhoods in Abidjan

The view of Abidjan, the largest city in Cote d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast). Plateau, the downtown area with the multi-purpose stadium (football, rugby, athletics) nicknamed "le Félicia". Abidjan, April 2013

Le Plateau

Le Plateau buzzes as Abidjan's economic powerhouse, where glass skyscrapers house West Africa's financial giants. Colonial-era government buildings with white facades and red-tile roofs create a fascinating contrast with modern banking towers. Don't miss the striking St. Paul's Cathedral with its modernist spires or the cultural treasures at the Musée National. The district offers upscale French-Ivorian fusion restaurants alongside local maquis serving authentic attieké and grilled fish. Business hotels dominate accommodations, catering to corporate travelers with modern amenities. Getting around is easy with major bus terminals and taxi stations throughout the area, making Le Plateau an ideal base for city exploration.

Marcory

Marcory serves up a colorful fusion of Lebanese and Ivorian cultures that's hard to find elsewhere in Abidjan. The bustling Marcory Market pulls you in with vibrant wax-print fabrics and spices that tickle your nose from ten feet away. Sports fans can catch local matches at Robert Champroux Stadium while food lovers hop between Lebanese bakeries and traditional maquis restaurants. Kids play in dusty courtyards while the scent of fresh manakish bread fills the air. Getting around is a breeze with shared taxis and motorcycle rides zipping through the neighborhood. You'll find simple guesthouses rather than fancy hotels here, perfect for travelers who want the real deal. Dining options range from authentic shawarma spots to street vendors selling grilled fish and attieké well into the evening.

Treichville

Treichville's energetic streets pulse with the rhythms of Ivorian culture. The sprawling Marché de Treichville dazzles with colorful kente cloth, carved masks, and aromatic spices. Traditional maquis restaurants fill the air with grilled fish aromas while Coupé-Décalé music spills onto sidewalks. Cultural centers showcase the rich diversity of ethnic traditions through lively evening performances. Getting around is easy with frequent shared taxis and buses running until late evening. You'll find budget-friendly guesthouses with helpful local hosts throughout the neighborhood. The vibrant nightlife scene comes alive after dark when music venues light up and outdoor eateries serve delicious attieké and kedjenou into the night.

Yopougon

Yopougon pumps with Abidjan's cultural heartbeat, where authentic Ivorian life unfolds at every turn. Street art splashes across concrete buildings while Coupé-Décalé rhythms spill from open-air maquis bars into the night. Banco National Park offers a green escape from the lively markets and music venues that define this spirited neighborhood. Getting around is easy with abundant "woro-woro" shared taxis and motorcycle rides for quick trips. Budget travelers will love the affordable local guesthouses and mouth-watering street food.
