Ambassades

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ambassades is a district of Niamey in Niger .

Ambassades is located on the left bank of the Niger River in the Niamey I arrondissement . The surrounding districts are Goudel in the west, Koira Kano in the northwest, Yantala in the northeast and Plateau in the east. Ambassades covers an area of ​​approximately 121 hectares and is located in a plateau with a layer of sand more than 2.5 meters deep, which allows better infiltration than in other parts of the city. The standard scheme for street names in the district is rue AM 1 , where the French rue for street is followed by AM for ambassades and finally a number. This goes back to a project to name streets in Niamey in 2002, in which the city was divided into 44 zones, each with its own letter abbreviations.
