Lagos
Lagos is a fashion capital, a hub for art, the home of Nollywood, and the spiritual home of Afrobeat.
Residents split Lagos into The Island (actually four islands around Lagos Lagoon, and the original site of the city) and Mainland, where it expanded prodigiously over the centuries. But forget its boundaries and look instead to its swirling centre, where culture, commerce and creativity collide. Lagos is all about street level and its incomparable energy, swagger and noise.
