Ouesso is the capital of the Sangha Province of the Republic of Congo (Congo-Brazzaville for short), located in the northwest of the country, adjacent to the Sangha River and near the border with Cameroon. As the economic and administrative center of Sangha Province, Ouesso is an important transportation hub connecting the northern part of Congo (Brazzaville) with neighboring countries.
Located in the Congo Basin near the equator, Ouesso has a tropical rainforest climate with high temperatures and rainfall throughout the year and rich biodiversity. Surrounded by dense tropical rainforest, it has unique natural landscape and wildlife resources.
The economy of Ouesso is based on agriculture, forestry and trade, and the local people are mostly engaged in the cultivation of crops such as cassava and banana, as well as timber harvesting. Ouesso Airport and the Sangha River waterway together form the main transportation network that supports the flow of goods in the region.
Ouesso is predominantly inhabited by the indigenous Bantu people, who retain their traditional tribal culture and customs. The city is small, with relatively simple infrastructure, but it has a unique flavor of a tropical town and is an important gateway for exploring the nature and people of the Congo Basin.
