Translated from the Arabic to mean ‘harbour of peace’, Dar es Salaam is the largest city in Tanaznia, and home to one (if not ‘the’) largest ports in East Africa. There are a few things to do in this bustling economic hub. Try one of the museums like the National Museum of Tanzania, or the Village Museum, just outside town, with its dance and music shows highlighting Tanzanian culture. Near here you can also find the Botanical Gardens. For more history, head to the Kaole Ruins, about an hour north of Bagamoyo. For further culture, there’s the House of Culture which opened in 2011. When you want to check out marine fauna, there’s the Dar es Salaam Marine Reserve, also good for snorkeling and scuba diving, as is Bongoyo Island.
