Glazoué, the capital of the department of Koufou in Benin's central region, is located in the transition zone between the Atacora Mountains and the Niger River, and is one of Benin's important agricultural and commercial centers. The city is known for its cultivation of cotton, maize, and cassava, and the surrounding area is rich in traditional handicrafts, especially wood carvings and weavings, which are heavily influenced by the local culture. With a vibrant traditional market, Grazouei is a distribution center for agricultural products and handicrafts from the surrounding area, and the annual "Festival de la Culture de Grazouei" attracts many tourists and showcases the music, dance and folklore of central Benin. As a transportation node connecting the north and south of Benin, the city is small in size but has become an indispensable economic and cultural center of central Benin due to its unique agricultural base and rich cultural heritage.
