Tourist Sites
Edo State is endowed with several tourist and historical landmarks. These landmarks revolve around the ancient town of Benin City of which memories date back to centuries.
People and Culture
Edo State is one of the states, distinguished by the relative homogeneity of her people. The most persuasive logic is the cultural and linguistic affinities that exist among the various ethnic groups. A lot of the communities trace their roots to the ancient kingdom of Benin. Customs of marriage, burial rites, diet and traditional modes of dress tend to be similar. The political pattern and behaviour were based on a system under which both monarchical and republican ideas flourished not merely side by side but in an integrated manner.

Bronze Festival
Between the Stone Age and the Iron Age (2500 B.C.-1000 B.C.), the Egyptians and Nubians adopted the “Cire Perdue” (lost wax) bronze casting techniques. This process was superior in technical mastery to the Etruscan and Greek process, common in Europe at the time. The “Cire Perdue” involved molding special clay as base. Then a likeness of what is to be modeled is put over this base and sun dried. When sufficiently dried, all these are dipped in molten metal. It takes the place of the wax and the object is formed.
