Kaédi

Kaédi is located along the north bank of the River Senegal where it connects with the Gorgol River.

The Fulani are the largest tribe in the city.

Kaédi is one of the few areas of settled agriculture in Mauritania.

The city's market reflects the sub-Saharan culture of neighboring Senegal more than the Moorish-Arabic culture found further north.

The Kaédi Regional Hospital features unusual architecture with multiple beehive-style domes.
