Two Niles Meet

The Nile is Sudan's most prominent geographical feature. The White and Blue Niles, which converge near Khartoum before moving slowly north through Egypt and eventually reaching the sea, make up Sudan's Nile. Both the White and Blue Niles flow through Sudan, and they combine close to the north of Khartoum, the nation's capital. One of Africa's geographical attractions is al-Mogran, the place where the two Niles converge, the Blue Nile, which flows from Ethiopia to the west, and the White Nile, which flows north from Lake Victoria. Following that, the main Nile keeps moving north toward Egypt and the Mediterranean Sea. When you go within the nation, you inevitably spend a lot of time following the river and the slender swath of rich territory on either side that keeps the desert at bay.

Sudan would not have life if it weren't for the world's longest river, which continues to sustain life even today and is home to most of the country's modern and historical conurbations. The finest place to enjoy the water is on its surface, whether you're taking a ferry ride or a short felucca cruise.
