El Fasher, Darfur | Sudan | City Gallery

Al Fashir or Al-Fashir (Arabic: الفاشر‎)



El Fasher s the capital city of North Darfur, Sudan. It is a large town in the Darfur region of northwestern Sudan, 120 miles (195 km) northeast of Nyala, Sudan.
A historical caravan post, Al-Fashir is located at an elevation of about 2,400 feet (700 m).[1]

The town serves as an agricultural marketing point for the cereals and fruits grown in the surrounding region. Al-Fashir is linked by road with both Al-Junaynah and Umm Kaddadah. Late in the 18th century, Sultan 'Abd al-Rahman al-Rashed of the Fur Sultanate of Darfur founded his capital city at Al-Fashir, and the town developed around the sultan's palace grounds.[1]

Well done! I know it wasn't easy too. I've done other Sudanese cities and they were also difficult to create, from my perspective.
