The war has brought down the liveliness of this biggest city of Chad, and after the war, Chad is tying to regain back its reputation as one of the liveliest city in Africa. Here in N'Djamena, you can still see buildings riddled with bullet holes, but despite of this, there is still some cheerful atmosphere to it as you tour its historic quarters as well as the its marketplace. You can also visit its National Museum to see wonderful artifacts from the Sarh culture.
2.) Zakouma National Park
This is a national park where you can also see the Bahr Salamat and its branches as they run across the plains. During the war, this national park lost most of its wildlife because of poaching and the effects of civil war. But now, the government of Chad has reintroduced back the animals, and so the park is what it once was, full of wildlife.
3.) Lake Chad
This is a historic site since it was once the center for the salt trade industry in Africa. But now, it is rapidly shrinking, and there are fewer animals around the lake. But still, this is a good place to visit, and it is best to visit this lake at about August to December when it is at its fullest, and you can see a lone hippopotamus or a lone crocodile swim by.
4.) Sarh
This is Chad's second biggest city. Its main source of income is through its sugarcane and cotton plantations. What you can see and enjoy here is its national museum and the Center Artisanal where you can also buy some of your souvenirs to take home with you.
5.) Moundou
Recognized as the country's third biggest city, it is made more popular by the Gala Brewery. You can visit the brewery for a tour and get to taste some of the most delicious beer in Chad. But you have to prepare for about a day to reach this place.
6.) Abeche
If you want to see more desert charm, then Abeche is the place for you to go to. Here, its oriental charisma is palpable. You can stroll along its streets made from cobblestones and visit some of its mosques as well as the markets.
7.) Tibesti Mountains
This is a must-see place as it is home to the Toubou Tribe. This is also popular for its racing camels. What you can see here are majestic chasms and crags, perfect for any nature lover.
8.) Restaurants of N'Djamena
It is not worth it to travel to an exotic country and not taste its foods. Here in N'Djamena, there are many French as well as authentic African restaurants that you can visit. Do not forget to taste their rice covered in peanut sauce as it is one of their specialties.
9.) Bars and nightlife in N'Djamena
If you are tired of nature and desert, then hit some of the bars in N'Djamena. Although a war-stricken city, it does its best to entertain the visitors. Drink their best beer, Gala, in these bars as well as join in some open-air dancing.
10.) Novotel N'Djamena La Tchadienne's Casino
This is a very beautiful hotel located in N'Djamena. If you are still in need of some modern entertain, then go to its casino. Here, you can play poker and blackjack.
Places To Go In Australia
Cork City is situated in the South of Ireland on the River Lee and is the 2nd biggest city in the country. It should be a part of any Irish tour as it is steeped in history and offers much to see and do for any visitors. It is a traditional city pieced together with small narrow streets and high hills.
Here is a list of five thing considered to be a must see/do
1) Give the Blarney Stone a kiss
The Blarney Stone site should be your first port of call. It is located on the outskirts of the city in a picturesque area. It is believed that the stone bestows "the gift of the gab" on those who kiss it. This means that you will never be short of things to say and be a real charmer.
Cork people of course believe they are born with this gift so don't need to kiss the stone!
2) Do some hard time
Visit the Old City Gaol (jail) which is now a heritage centre. Get a feeling of 19th century prison life. Many were sentenced to hard time here for menial crimes such as stealing food. The jail has been maintained to look similar to the way it was when it opened in 1840.
Ships were arranged to deport many of the prisoners to Australia and the USA. Visitors from these countries often trace their family roots back to Cork. There is certainly an uncomfortable feeling when walking the corridors and cells of this old building
3) Have a pint of plain
Guinness is something that often comes to mind when people think about Ireland. In Cork however there are similar but more popular locally brewed drinks called Murphy's and Beamish. Cork people swear that their drink is superior to Guinness.
Get yourself into one of Cork's many many pubs and decide for yourself.
4) Utterly Butterly
Cork - the butter mountain of Ireland back in the day so I'm told. Butter was sent from Cork to locations throughout the world. Cork land is ideal for butter manufacturing. The butter museum allows you to get a glimpse into the life of a butter worker and the long working days which were endured.
5) Go Hiking
Well not quite but if you can make it to the top of the bell tower of St. Ann's in Shandon you will have got some good exercise. You can often hear the bells ringing by themselves on Cork's windier days. Give em a bash while you are up there.
They say one visit to Cork is never enough so don't surprised if you are itching to get back again and again. Cork is a unique wonderful city. There is nowhere quite like it. Try it yourself and see what I mean.
