WHY VISIT SUDAN

Still very agitated by serious conflicts, and weakened by successive famines, Sudan can not currently exploit its tourist assets. Let us mention however the places that will one day catch the attention of the traveler …

In Khartoum, located at the confluence of the White Nile and the Blue Nile, one can admire the presidential palace and the national museum, the latter sheltering archaeological objects more than 4000 years old, real treasures. To the north of the city, the souk of Omdurman deserves the detour. In the evening, on the banks of the Nile, the tea-sellers compose an astonishing picture. You can also stroll through the family parks, which are very popular with the Sudanese.

The coastline extends along the Red Sea for almost 900 kilometers. Diving enthusiasts will surely be seduced by the multicolored shoals of fish, coral reefs, and the clarity of the water.

As for landscapes, one can also admire the mountain chains along the Red Sea, those to the west of Darfur, with Djebel Marra at 3071 meters above sea level, and the Imatong mountains of the south, which culminate at 3187 meters with Mount Kete.

Throughout the Nile there are also many archaeological sites, including the most famous, Meroe, the ancient city of Nubia and the capital of a kingdom that stretched over several centuries (from 550 BC to 350 After J.-C.), with its pyramids, and which is today classified as a world heritage of UNESCO.
