I will be talking about tourism today and also will take you to my country directly to my city to show you our amazing and beautiful places to visit, you will love it.

First of all I want to thank the Hive learners community for coming out with this wonderful topic in their weekly edition contest.

Tourism I will simply say is the act of traveling and exploring beautiful places and areas of the world. This can be any remarkable place such as ancient buildings or properytiee, museum, zoo, and various centre of attraction.

Each country has there own tourist or centre of attraction for example the pyramid of Egypt, the great wall of China, Taj Mahal in India, Petra of Jordan and many more...

Nigeria is my country, and it's known The Giant of Africa, so when you talk about major tourist centers in Africa,Nigeria can not be left out. There are numerous centres of attraction and are too numerous to mention.

There many tourist centres in my country but today I want to take you to my state in particular which is OYO state and it's capital the great city of Ibadan, One of the oldest cities in Nigeria.

Ibadan is filled so many tourist centres which can be explored by so many travellers in the world. I would love to show you some of this beautiful and fascinating places in the city of Ibadan.
