Djoué River

Right tributary of the Congo River near Brazzaville — a quiet lowland river at the edge of the Congolese capital.

The Djoué is a right tributary of the Congo River in the Republic of the Congo, meeting the main river near the capital Brazzaville. At its confluence, it forms one of the few accessible riverbanks in the area. Little detailed information has been documented about the Djoué itself; it is a typical lowland river of the Congo Basin, flanked by tropical gallery forest. Its proximity to Brazzaville makes it an occasional destination for local residents. For travelers visiting Brazzaville, the Djoué offers a quiet contrast to the city — a river channel where the urban landscape gives way to the Congo Basin.
