Cities in Sudan
Cities in Sudan has a typical oriental appearance. For example, in the capital Khartoum you will feel like you’re not in Africa, but rather in the Middle East. The buildings are low, most often with flat roofs and are usually painted in white, yellow or beige shades. There are also new and modern buildings, but at the present time they are still rarity. These are mainly bank and hotel buildings. Even at the 5 million capital you will feel like you are in the middle of the desert. The streets are usually dusty and sandy. In some places in the capital (and in other cities) you can find typical oriental markets in which goods are placed directly on the canvas on the ground. In this way the dealers sell fruits, vegetables, nuts and other goods. The streets of the multimillion capital are always filled with people who scurried back and forth. The movement subsides only in the heat of the midday hours when it appears challenging to go out under the searing African sun. Cars move as they do not observe any traffic regulations and creates a sense of chaos and disorder.
