Some 1,300 miles (2,100 km) from the mouth of the Congo River, Kisangani is the farthest navigable point upstream. Kisangani is the nation´s most important inland port after Kinshasa, an important commercial hub point for river and land transportation and a major marketing and distribution centre for the north-eastern part of the country. It has been the commercial capital of the northern Congo since the late 19th century." - (en.wikipedia.org 10.09.2020) - Latitude
