Any Travels

As the name dictates, the Central African Republic lies in Central Africa entirely within the tropical zone. Completely landlocked, it is bordered to the North by Chad, on the east by Sudan, on the south by Republic of Congo and the Congo, and on the west by Cameroon. The southern border follows the bed of the Ubangi River; the eastern border coincides with the divide between the watersheds of the Nile and the Zaire rivers.

The land consists of an undulating plateau varying in altitude from 2,000 to 2,500 ft. Two important escarpments are evident: In the northwest the Yade Massif, rising to 3,750 ft, is a high granite plateau related to the Adamawa Plateau of Cameroon; and in the northeast the Fertit Hills rise to 4,200 ft and extend into the Sudan. Soils are complex: sands and clays predominate, sometimes covered with a lateritic layer, over granite and quartz rocks. The land is well drained by two river systems: the Ugangi and its tributaries in the southern and the tributaries of the Shari and Longone rivers in the north. The two largest rivers are the Ubangi (1,300 km) and the Sangha (1,400km), both tributaries of the Zaire River.

Although the Central African Republic has seen a bit of political turmoil in recent year, the situation now seems relatively stable again. Central African Republic has been a favorite hunting destination for rich Europeans for many years. The north of the country is remote but has some of the nicest game parks in the world.

Crosser walk car park and Crosser walk car park are also good options.

The south of Central Africa is muddy and dominated by tropical rainforest. The Oubangui river separates the republic form Congo Kinshasa and is the life wire of the country. Bangui the capital is located on the banks of the river and so is Bangassou the second city.

Although Bangui is not an exiting place by Western standards, it has quite some charm. It is easy going most of the time and compared to neighbouring country has a lot to offer to visitors.

Bangui is the capital of the Central African Republic. It is located in the southwestern part of the country. The city is situated on the western bank of the Oubangi River, the nation's main trade artery, across from the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Bangui developed around a military post established by the French in 1889-90. It was the administrative center for the French territory of Ubangi-Chari and continued as the national capital when the country achieved independence as the Central African Republic in 1960.

Bangui is the republic's chief port and its leading administrative, economic, and educational center. It has the only university of the country.

With its broad avenues, the beautiful hills and the river, Bangui certainly has some charm. Around the central market and the avenue Boganda there are always things going on. The centre of town is the place the la republique, where you find the Roman style triumphal arch of former emperor Bokassa.

For nightlife head out 5 kilometer on Avenue Boganda until it intersects with Avenue Koudougou. You are in 'km5' as the locals call it: cheap re
