Summary
| Description |
English: The Zangbeto, guardian of the night is part of Benin's religious heritage. During the national festival of endogenous religions in Benin, the Zangbeto goes out during the day for mysterious and very impressive demonstrations!
Sometimes, the Zangbeto convent is so far away from the place of the demonstrations that modern means of transport have to be used. This is the case here with this mini bus with Zangbeto and his initiates' outfit. They marked a pose to load the tank. In other circumstances, the Zangbeto has the magical powers to make this vehicle run, even without a drop of fuel ... But beware, Zangbeto is not about exhibitionism! Photo taken on the interstate road Cotonou Lomé, towards Grand-Popo.

Lors de la fête nationale des religions endogènes au Bénin, le Zangbeto sort en journée pour des démonstrations mystérieuses très impressionnantes!
Parfois, le couvent du Zangbeto est si loin du lieu des manifestations qu'il faut solliciter les moyens modernes de transport. Cest le cas ici avec ce mini bus avec l’accoutrement de Zangbeto et ses initiés. Ils ont marqué une pose pour charger le réservoir. En d'autres circonstances, le Zangbéto a les pouvoirs magiques de faire rouler ce véhicule, même sans une goutte de carburant... Mais attention, le Zangbeto n'est pas dans l’exhibitionnisme! Photo faite sur la route inter état Cotonou Lomé, vers Grand-Popo.
