Kassala

Souq ash-Sha'abi is Kassala's bus station, just off the main Khartoum-Port Sudan highway and quite a distance from the centre of town. Local buses and taxis meet most bus arrivals.

Al-Mowgif al-'Aam is the central bus station, a large square in the middle of the souqs. Buses a tourist might need to use include Khatmiya for the old quarter of Khatmiya, Tomb of Seyid Hassan and the cafes on Totil Mountain, Souq ash-Sha'abi for the inter-city bus station, Banat for the Gash river and colonial railway quarter, and the lorries to Sawagi Janubiya and Sawagi Shamaliya, the two areas of farmland to the south and north.

Kassala does not have many taxis and no rikshas.
