The Nile at Khartoum |
||||||
 |
||||||
|
||||||
| Khartoum, the capital of Sudan, is situated where the Blue Nile and White Nile merge into a single river. The Nile River and its two tributaries are important transportation routes, although less so now than in the past because of the construction of good roads. Traditional flat-bottomed Nile steamers, like the one pictured here, still carry passengers and freight along the rivers. | ||||||
