Congo Stanley Falls

Congo Stanley Falls

The historic Stanley Falls at Kisangani. These rapids rush noisily over boulders. Wagenia fishermen, who’ve lived on the banks of the Congo River since time immemorial, dive in and out of the water and giant stones (with huge cone-shaped baskets) trying to get the catch of the day.The Congo River can throw up surprises. It’s not always what you expect.When you hear the word “falls” associated with bodies of water, don’t you think Victoria Falls or Niagara Falls?
