Benreu Village
Peren
About
Situated in the district of Peren, this little village perched 1950 metres above sea level, houses a unique community where 20 per cent of an animist population dictates the customs and social rules of the majority Christians. A tourist village preserved around the ethnic-tourism concept, Benreu is a living showcase of the endangered culture of these highlanders. With the dense wildlife sanctuary around it, the visitor can literally embark upon his wild safari by staying comfortably in this real animist village. If you are in Benreu, then do not forget to have the Kennie Nku, the local bread made from sticky rice and prepared over a heated stone kiln.
