  Went to the floating village in a rowing boat and came back in a motorised boat. The village is worth a visit.. even if it is called as a floating village, its a village built on pillars and some parts are having land, looks like an island..
  we can see various shops and market on this floating village..
  Men are primarily into fishing and woman sell them.

  I've seen the reed islands in Bolivia/Peru, and this compares favourably if you like your man-made floating villages. Definitely worth a visit.

  Une ballade en bateau dans cette ville lacustre est très impressionnante

  I was in Ganvie' several years ago. It is a big village with wood house over the water, well built and not so bad. I visited many houses and the people was proud to show them. It was all so corlorfull and the small wood boats was carrying people and food with colored spices. I got some artworks there made in ebony or other. Just an advise: carry with you secure water to drink, cover your skin with mosquito repellent, and do not eat anything there. Bring with you some local currency in small cut just to give something to the people and for small shopping. You will see people making anything to be photographed and ask after a cadeaux. Very interesting to take pics of all. I hope they stay better than when I was there. Any case you have to see the Africa's Venice!
