Congo ( DRC, formerly Zaïre ). A voyage to Democratic Republic of Congo, Africa - Kinshasa, Lubumbashi, Mbuji-Mayi, Kisangani, Masina, Kananga, Likasi, Kolwezi, Tshikapa, Bukavu...











As much a geographical concept as a fully fledged nation, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC, formerly Zaïre) has written one of the saddest chapters in modern history: from the brazen political folly of King Leopold of Belgium to the hideously corrupt kleptocracy of maverick leader Mobutu Sese Seko, and the blood-stained battlegrounds of Africa’s first ‘world war’. All of which make the inevitable Heart of Darkness references painfully apt.
But, after a decades-long decline in which much of the country descended into anarchy, Africa’s third-largest nation is now squarely headed in the right direction. It still has a long way to go (militias continue to brutalise civilians in many areas and sadly reports of mass rapes are all too frequent), but new roads, enormous untapped mineral wealth, the world’s largest UN peacekeeping force have bred some optimism among its tormented but resilient population.
Travel here remains difficult and frustrating but the huge swathes of rainforest punctuated by gushing rivers and smoking volcanoes mean DRC is an ecodestination just waiting to happen.
Travel Alert: The UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office recommends against all travel to some areas and against all non-essential travel to the rest, please check with your relevant national government.Show in Lonely Planet

  1. I was lucky to benefits from Pedro and his loan company merchant loan offer with 2% rate annual return which is really helpful in this economy situation, I trust pedro and his loan company enough to recommend anyone looking for a loan to contact them via email, pedroloanss@gmail.com or chat him up on whatsapp +1-8632310632 about how to apply for a loan of 2% rate annual return.
    If you run a business or need financial assistance and have difficulty qualifying and receiving a loan from the bank, Pedro and his loan company will be one of the most affordable loans you can get.
