The real sources of the Nile at Ripon Falls (Uganda)

Ricardo Coarasa- Jinja (Uganda) The locals say this place as the exact point where the Nile begins its journey 6.500 km to its mouth in Egypt. When the browser Speke gave the mythical sources 1862, here were the Ripon Falls (flooded after dam construction). The gurgling river now in the same place, as if looking out the waterfalls would like timidly surface. The Nile is here an oasis of calm water that can be navigated by boat for a few dollars. The panorama is taken from the same island that Speke drew near Ripon Falls.
