About Dar Es Salaam - presentation, information, photos and recommendations
Located in a quiet bay off the coast of the Indian Ocean, the city has developed into an economic importance to become a prosperous center of the entire East African region. Its lively port is the main port of Tanzania.
Its industrial area produces products for export and use throughout the country. All government offices are based in Dar es Salaam, and the country's diplomatic missions and non-governmental organizations are all present in the bustling city.
Restaurants, shops, office buildings and government buildings are common features of Tanzania's urban center. During the German occupation at the beginning of the 20th century, Dar es Salaam was the center of colonial administration and the main point of contact between the agricultural continent and the world of trade and commerce in the Indian Ocean and the Swahili coast. Remains of colonial presence, both German and British, can still be seen in the landmarks and architecture around the city. The National Museum, the Village Museum and many colorful markets are worth a visit. Numerous historical landmarks, including St. Joseph's Cathedral, the White Father's Mission House, the Botanical Gardens and the old State House make an interesting walking tour on the water's edge and in the city center.
Seven kilometers north of the city is Bongoyo Island Marine Reserve, which offers good snorkeling and diving spots for those who want to explore the water. The reserve boasts of its beautiful beaches, secluded islands and many varieties of marine species. Although the variety and population of coral and fish species are not as numerous as other sites in Zanzibar, Pemba and Mafia Island, Bongoyo Island Marine Reserve is worth a visit and is a great way to spend a day and see the coast. . .
