Recordist's notes

Located on the outskirts of the city center, the colobane district nicknamed "Colways" is home to the second largest mosque in Senegal. The Massalikoul Jinane Mosque is the pride of most Senegalese today. In Dakar, every Friday, thousands of Muslims go to pray in this place of worship.
