Mugran El Nileen in Khartoum is a unique geographical location, attractive, inspiring, distinctive, wasted and neglected tourist wealth, how we use it and see it in a different way by innovative tourist Nile projects?
Sudan is my home country it is an African country located in North Africa. The capital of Sudan is Khartoum it is in a charming location which makes it distinguished from other capitals. It is located at the junction of the Blue Nile and the White Nile to be followed by the River Nile, which is described as the longest river and kiss in the world.
Blue Nile lowing northward through the tropical climate of eastern Africa and into the Mediterranean Sea, the river passes through 11 countries: Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kenya, Ethiopia, Eritrea, South Sudan, Sudan and Egypt. While the White Nile is the longer tributary, the Blue Nile is the main source of water and fertile soil. The White Nile is called so because of the light-coloured clay sediment in the water giving the river a light grey colour. The White Nile and Blue Nile merge near Khartoum, becoming Nile proper.
Two years ago, when I am watching Sudan TV, I saw a tourist’s people using fishing boat not suitable for carrying tourists and holding camera taking pictures to this area with difficulty way then I start to think about this project.
Unfortunately, the wars and the succession and the failure of governments to invest in the tourist and natural features of Sudan. The Capital Khartoum is contained of three cities: (Khartoum, Omdurman, and Khartoum Bahry), It is called the Triangle Capital all of which are located on the Blue Nile, White Nile, and the River Nile. They are connected by a few bridges, but all those bridges did not present the views of the meet point of the Niles. The most important landmark of the universe is the confluence of the Blue and White Nile at the area of Al-Muqran. The Blue Nile and White Nile meeting in the capital of Khartoum is a unique geographical location, attractive, inspiring, distinctive, and wasted and neglected tourist wealth, how to use it and see it in a different way by innovative Nile projects.
