BBC Travel has just published an article on the great destination - Sudan. Sudan is the largest, and yet one of the least visited countries in Africa. There you can wander among pristine ruins and UNESCO protected pyramids without getting another tourist in sight.

Despite the country's turbulent past, Sudan has a rich heritage with breathtaking cultural and archaeological wonders that few visitors get to see. A heritage of over 7000 years of history and ancient civilizations. Embark on a journey back in time to ancient Nubia.
