Canal des Pangalanes
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Canal des Pangalanes, the longest canal in the world, is a series of man made canals linking natural lakes and rivers running down the east coast of Madagascar from Tamatave for over 600 km. It is used mainly for transportation and fishing, but it also contains unspoiled beaches popular with tourists. It was constructed by the French between 1896-1904.
