The place I have selected is Mali: Great Mosque of Djenné, which is a small town of Djenne located West of Timbuktu. Caravans had to be passed in order to travel between North and West Africa. Djenne is also known for its architecture and mosques.  This makes a connection to the content I teach in Unit 2 of our language arts curriculum, in which we focus on history and discuss caravans and the impact they had during that time.
