Bouar is an important city in the southwest of the Central African Republic, located about 330 kilometers west of the capital Bangui, on the plateau, with an average altitude of about 850 meters, and is one of the gateway cities on the border between Central Africa and Cameroon. As the economic and transportation center of southwestern Central, Buar is surrounded by well-developed agriculture, producing cotton, coffee, peanuts and other crops, and its market radiates to the surrounding areas, making it an important distribution center for commodities. With a population of about 150,000 (2023 estimate), the city is a multi-ethnic settlement with a rich culture of traditional handicrafts. Historically an important colonial trading post, Bouar still retains its distinctive colonial architecture and is also one of the bases of operations for the United Nations peacekeeping force in the central-west, which is of strategic importance for regional stability.
