The Tourist Attractions of N’Djamena:
N’Djamena isn’t exactly recognised as a major tourist destination, but if you’re passing through, or visiting on business there are a few things to see and do. The city has some very nice hotels, which have a price tag to reflect this, including one of the international Le Meridien chain. There are restaurants too, but being a mainly Muslim city don’t ask for alcohol with your meal, unless it’s on the menu, to avoid embarrassment.
With many Muslims in N’Djamena you’ll also find many mosques, but there are a number of Christians here too who practice their religion in the N’Djamena Cathedral. The quite modern cathedral has an almost aircraft hangar-like appearance with its huge sloping roof, though it is of course far more highly decorative and attractive than a hangar!
N’Djamena is set on the Chari River and one of the popular attractions of the city is watching the sun setting on the river, as it; said to be quite beautiful. As you stand, or sit, and watch this, think about the name of the city and what it means – N’Djamena means ‘place of rest’, and at times like these it is an appropriate name! It was actually renamed from its original name of Fort-Lamy, having been called this by the French who founded the city in 1900. Chad became independent of France in 1960, and in 1973 the president of Chad set about Africanizing the country, and renamed cities like N’Djamena.
Another attraction in N’Djamena is the Chad National Museum. The museum is not as impressive as it once was as it’s suffered looting and damage, but it still has a good collection of musical instruments. Formerly there were exhibits relating to the history and culture of Chad, dating back to prehistory, as well as exhibits on local folk arts and crafts, and traditions. Still, the museum does have artefacts to see, and is housed within the former town hall of N’Djamena.
