The Sudan Ethnographic Museum, located in Khartoum, was established in 1956 as a branch of the National Museum of Sudan. It houses a collection of cultural artifacts that showcase the lifestyles and traditions of Sudan's diverse ethnic groups. The exhibits are organized by geographic region, covering areas from southern Sudan to the northern deserts. The museum also explores Sudanese customs, including traditional music, food preparation, and wedding ceremonies. Although the museum was closed in the early 2020s due to the war in Sudan, ongoing efforts are underway to renovate the site and create digital access to its collection, ensuring its cultural heritage is preserved.

This place really only requires an hour and a half to two and a half hours. They choose to close at weird times, so I'd stick to times between 11-2 or call ahead. They have some wonderful material and collections. They have great descriptions. It was very informative.
