La Dame de Mali, or Lady of Mali, is a feature of Mount Loura, near the town of Mali, in northern Guinea, near the border with Senegal that resembles the profile of a woman. And not just the head, but also chest, waist and belly!
Mount Loura, altitude 1515 m (Fello Loura in the Pular language) is the northernmost point and highest peak in the Fouta Djallon in northern Guinea. It is 7 km from the prefecture of Mali (also Mali-ville or Mali-Centre). It is part of a complex of mountains called the Massif de Tamgue, which rises to steep cliffs on three sides, and provides views into Senegal and Mali. Its most interesting feature, the rocky profile of an old woman (referred to as the "Dame de Mali" or "Lady of Mali"), can be seen from the nearby village of Dongol Loura. Src: Wikipedia
