Gunjur is a town at the Atlantic Ocean in the Gambia.
Understand[edit]
Gunjur is a small rural town far away from the resort areas in the northern part of Gambia. Life is still traditional and the day-to-day life of the local community is almost the same for decades. Maybe now it is going to change because of the access to electricity in 2013.
