The Capital City 首都
The capital city of Sudan is Khartoum. Khartoum is positioned at the confluence of the White Nile and the Blue Nile. The meeting of the two rivers created three cities, each on its own bank. To the southeast lies Khartoum proper; to the west Omdurman; and the northeast Khartoum Bahri. Each of these cities has its own role in the history of Sudan, as well as symbolic landmarks to tell its own tale.
