Central African Republic
Culture
You're likely to hear modern African music on the radio, most of which comes from the two Congos. Some of its exponents have become world famous, and while traditional African music influenced the music of the USA, the Caribbean and Latin America, modern African music has in turn been influenced by jazz, rock and Latin rhythms. Traditional African music is not generally particularly accessible to the Western ear, and although it's full of complex rhythms and harmonies, it is not melodic and may sound as if very little is going on. The log xylophone is one of the most common instruments, and it consists of two long banana tree trunks supporting about five logs that are struck with sticks. The tiny sanza or thumb piano consists of a soundbox of wood with bamboo or metal keys played with the thumbs. If you encounter any pygmies you will probably hear some of their music, because they accompany all of their daily activities with music. Africans generally place great emphasis on clothing, and a trip to the CAR is a treat to see the quality of people's dress. Women often wear a loose top and a length of cloth

Central African Republic The Central African Republic (CAR) has possibly the most pristine national park in the whole of Africa, where pygmies guide you through forest that's the domain of elephants and rare lowland gorillas. Dense rainforests explode in riots of colourful butterflies, and out on the plains you can spot elephants, lions, leopards, rhinos and a host of other animals you won't see outside of a zoo at home. The towns and cities have bustling markets, palm and banana wine for sale by the side of the roads, green hills and giraffes close by, and beer halls to do a Bavarian proud. All this comes without the hassle of souvenir sellers and wily tour operators. Unfortunately, the CAR has succumbed to decades of political chaos, lawlessness and poverty. In the cities, muggings, petty theft and police extortion are commonplace. The countryside has become so lawless that the government recently closed all its land borders to foreigners. The roads are crumbling and the best national park is infuriatingly difficult to get to.

Central African Republic - Culture Overview The Central African Republic has rarely benefited from its central location, since its population suffered the incursions of slave traders not only from the west, but also from the north and east, until well into the 20th century. Matters were complicated by the forced labor demands of French colonialism beginning in the 19th century. The political fortunes of Central Africans since independence have been scarred by the 13-year-rule of Jean Bedel Bokassa, one of Africa's most unsavory dictators. Under these circumstances, it is not surprising that the cultural heritage most valued by Central Africans is tied to the traditions upheld in the rural villages. The relative absence of ethnic rivalries makes possible the widespread understanding and sharing of these traditions.
Some of the country's most inspiring landmarks are the megalithic statues that stand outside the town of Bouar. Carved by prehistoric populations about whom little is known, these granite sculptures are huge, and must have required significant social cooperation to put in place. In Bangui, the Boganda Museum has a large collection of local musical instruments, but it is also an interesting two-story building that once served as the presidential palace. Bokassa's Residence has been organized as a public reminder of the former dictator. The place has been stripped of all valuable goods, but retains mementos of the dictator's gruesome tastes, including, for example, the lion cages in the yard.
