Togo Culture, Geography and History

Geography and Environment of Togo

Togo lies in a narrow strip, bordered by Burkina Faso, Benin and Ghana. Its coast is small, tranquil and oozes easy living. Further north, seaside charm gives way to a network of lagoons and swampy plains, and eventually savannah, hills and forest.
