The Mogran (Confluence of the Blue and White Niles)
The Mogran (al-Mogran) is the dramatic point where the coffee-colored Blue Nile meets the greener White Nile to form the main Nile, the geographic heart of Khartoum. From the riverbank or the family park you can watch the two distinctly colored waters merge, and it is one of the few truly free, iconic sights in the city. Late afternoon light around 4pm is best for the color contrast.
