1. Jaekel House

One of the oldest surviving colonial buildings in Lagos. Built in the 1890s, it serves as a small railway museum and offers a glimpse into Lagos before the traffic, skyscrapers, and chaos. Many Lagosians have never heard of it despite living here their entire lives. It’s a hidden gem for history lovers.

📍 Location: Ebute Metta

1. Jazzhole

Part bookstore, part record store, part cultural time machine.

You’ll find rare books, vintage vinyl records, old Nigerian magazines, and a peaceful atmosphere that’s hard to find in Lagos. You can easily lose two hours browsing without realizing it. Bring money because you’ll probably leave with a book.

📍 Location: Ikoyi

💰 Entry: Free

One of Lagos’ most underrated nature spots. Think walking trails, rescued wildlife, picnic areas, and enough greenery to make you forget you’re in Lagos. You’re allowed to bring your own food. Great option for a budget-friendly outing.

💰 Entry: Adults from about ₦2,500
