Tourism

The Republic of South Sudan is home to some of Africa's least explored but most beautiful wildlife habitats: Africa's largest wetland, the South and the continent's largest unspoiled savannah, an endless stretch of wilderness east of the White Nile River that runs all the way into Ethiopia.

This savannah, an ecosystem 95,000 km² wide, the size of a country like Hungary, is traversed each year by some 1.2 million antelopes and gazelles, huge herds that leave their trail visible from the sky.

In terms of scale, this movement is exceeded only by the great wildebeest migration between the Serengeti Park in Tanzania and the Masai Mara in Kenya. The lions, elephants, and myriad other iconic and endangered species that populate this savanna have survived the modern world.
