What I'd like to add to Zuma Rock

The beauty about Zuma rock isn't just the fact that it is a monolith, but also because of the power the Nigerians believe it has. If anyone takes a closer look at it, they would notice that there is an image of a face planted on it. There are no references as to how it came to be, but Nigerians do believe that because of the face, Zuma rock has some mystical and magical powers. I also want to add how the Nigerian government has tried to turn it into a national touristic site but have failed.

Why?

I grew up in Nigeria, and being there I've seen a lot of beautiful sceneries. And this doesn't just apply to Nigeria, but many other African countries. the hope is that one day, people would start associating Africa with their landscapes and touristic sites rather than the 3rd world image it has on just being a continent of poor and starving children.
