Bangui Travel Guide — Things to Do, Food & Hotels

capital city of the Central African Republic

About Bangui

Modern Bangui was founded in 1889, but archaeological studies in and around Bangui have yielded at least 26 ancient Iron Age sites that contain many metallurgical tools and objects, illuminating the pre-European history of the city and surrounding area. The Central African Republic is just north of the Equator and consequently throughout the year daily high temperatures rarely fall below30°C (86°F). The rainy season lasts from May until October. Bangui, being in the south of the country and thus closest to the Equator, is slightly hotter and wetter than the northern parts of the country.
