Central African Republic Shopping and nightlife
Shopping in Central African Republic
Bangui has reasonable shopping facilities, including the Marché Central (Central Market) notably for ebony, gold jewellery, butterfly collections and objets d'art made from butterfly wings. However, one of the best methods of finding bargain souvenirs is by bartering with villagers outside the urban areas for their handmade goods.
Shopping hours
Mon-Sat 0800-1200 and 1600-1900. Some shops close on Monday. The market in Bangui is open 0730-dusk.
