Sudan to Chandigarh

The capital of Sudan, Khartoum is located at the meeting point of the White Nile and the Blue Nile, lending this place a unique natural character. The place where these two rivers meet to form the Nile River is known as Al-Mogran. The city is practically divided by these rivers into three distinct parts - Khartoum, Bahri and Omdurman. On a Khartoum trip, travellers can discover the old-world charm of the Khartoum region, shop in the traditional souqs of Omdurman and go to Bahri to explore its modern attractions. Travellers can go for a walk on the Nile Street and behold the sight of the impressive Presidential Palace and Al-Fateh Tower, shaped like an egg. They can go for a picnic in the Al-Mogran Family Park or discover the cultural treasures of this place at the Sudan National Museum. Souq Arabi and Souq Omdurman, famous for handicrafts and other local offerings, are must-visits during a trip to Khartoum. This city stands apart as an unusual destination, boasting of a rare cultural appeal and an interesting natural setting.
