  • Juba Market and Greek Architecture District

    Juba Market and Greek Architecture District is a historic commercial area located in central Juba, the capital of South Sudan. The district developed during the 1920s under Anglo-Egyptian rule, when Greek merchants and other foreign traders played a major role in establishing the modern town. Known historically as the Greek Quarter and today associated with Hai Jallaba, the area features colonial-era buildings distinguished by Greek-inspired architectural elements, including decorative columns and verandas. Notable structures include former trading houses, commercial buildings, and the old casino.
