Travel Warning

WARNING: Due to increasing rebel activity and violent civil/political unrest, travel here is discouraged for most of the country, especially the north of the country. The government is volatile and maintains a weak grip on the country. Banditry and general lawlessness are major problems outside Bangui. Travel outside Bangui, except for the relatively peaceful southwest area near Dzanga-Sangha National Park, is dangerous and not advised for any reason. This includes all land routes from Cameroon.

The Central African Republic (French: République centrafricaine or Centrafrique, Sangho: Ködörösêse tî Bêafrîka) is at the geographic center of Africa, bordered by Cameroon to the west, Chad to the north, Sudan and South Sudan to the east, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Republic of the Congo to the south.
