In Western Africa lies the city of Bagnoule, the capital of Gambia. It is located on Saint Marys Island near the point where the Antarctic Ocean meets the Gamma River. The island is connected to the mainland by the sea, which runs between the northern mainland and the mainland. The southern side of St. Marys and the larger land are connected by bridges.
Modern Bangeul is a cultural and industrial center that was founded by the Anglo-Anglicans in 1816. It was founded as a seaport and center of British trade to the west of the African continent. It was originally named Bathurst. Over time it was transformed into the capital of the colonial province of Gambia. It became its present name in 1973, eight years after independence.
The city was designed on the basis of its geographic location and hot climate. Thats why the citys streets are interspersed with shady parks and orchards that offer shelter from the sizzling sun and the heat. In the central part of the city are buildings and structures made in European architectural style with comfortable lounges that offer a magnificent view of the city. There are numerous shops and shops, open-air cafes, and numerous shops with open-air restaurants all along the streets.
The city is home to industries, including semi-products, nuts, seafood, and fish. ×Some of the products they produce are exported. These include palm oil, arachis and a few seafood products.
One of the citys economic sectors is the development of the tourism industry. The city is home to one of the most famous markets on the Atlantic coast called Alibert. The National Museums excerpts tell us about the citys colonial period and its archaeological history. Next to it is Arc 22. The structure was erected in 1994 to commemorate the National Conversion. From its height, it offers a remarkable panoramic view of the cityscape and the surrounding countryside.
