http://www.traveldocs.com/bf/geog.htm

Extractions: Climate: Sahelian; pronounced wet and dry seasons. Burkina Faso is a landlocked Sahel country that shares borders with six nations. It lies between the Sahara Desert and the Gulf of Guinea, south of the loop of the Niger River. The land is green in the south, with forests and fruit trees, and desert in the north. Most of central Burkina Faso lies on a savanna plateau, 198- 305 meters (650-1,000 ft.) above sea level, with fields, brush, and scattered trees. Burkina Faso's game preserves-the most important of which are Arly, Nazinga, and Park W-contain lions, elephants, hippopotamus, monkeys, warthog, and antelopes. Tourism is not well developed. Annual rainfall varies from about 100 centimeters (40 in.) in the south to less than 25 centimeters (10 in.) in the extreme north and northeast, where hot desert winds accentuate the dryness of the region. Burkina Faso has three distinct seasons: warm and dry (November-March); hot and dry (March-May); and hot and wet (June- October). Rivers are not navigable.

Extractions: Burkina Faso COUNTRY DESCRIPTION: Burkina Faso, previously known as Upper Volta, is a developing West African country that borders the Sahara Desert. The official language is French. Facilities for tourism are not widely available. ENTRY REQUIREMENTS: A passport and visa are required. Travelers should obtain the latest information and details from the Embassy of Burkina Faso, 2340 Massachusetts Avenue, NW, Washington, D.C. 20008, telephone (202) 332-5577. There are honorary consuls for Burkina Faso in Decatur (Georgia), Los Angeles and New Orleans. Overseas inquiries should be made at the nearest Burkina Faso embassy or consulate. SAFETY AND SECURITY: U.S. citizens traveling to and residing in Burkina Faso are urged to exercise caution and maintain a high level of security awareness at all times. The capital of Ouagadougou periodically experiences demonstrations and civil unrest. Although the demonstrations are generally peaceful, there have been several incidents of violence and destruction within recent years. U.S. citizens should avoid crowds, political gatherings and street demonstrations and contact the consular section of the U.S. Embassy upon arrival to register and to obtain the latest information on travel and security. CRIME INFORMATION: Street crime in Burkina Faso poses high risks for visitors. Most reported incidents involve purse-snatchers and street scam artists, who target wallets, jewelry and other valuables. Thieves are especially active during international meetings or events, which draw large crowds to the capital. The areas near and around the U.N. Circle and the Central Market in Ouagadougou, experience the highest incidence of purse snatchings and muggings. Travelers should stay alert, remain in groups and avoid poorly lit areas. Be especially cautious at night.

Extractions: Ouagadougou, also Wagadugu, city in central Burkina Faso, capital of the country and of its Kadiogo Province. A commercial and administrative center, it is connected by rail with Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire, on the Atlantic Ocean, and by road with Niamey, Niger. Livestock, grain, cotton, vegetables, and shea nuts are produced in the surrounding area, which also has granite and lignite deposits.
