ZANZIBAR
ISLAND
Zanzibar
the Spice Island lies in the Indian Ocean off the coast of Kenya and
Tanzania Mainland. To explore Zanzibar is to discover a reality in
which tourists are finding hard to catch on.
Here the
charm of nature and legend combine as one in a world of white beaches
and finite variety of fish and sandy coral insects emerge from the
sea at low tide. Zanzibar is a total green Island of tall trees, huge
baobabs and slender coconut palms pervaded by the sand of cloves drying
out in the sun.
The fortified
stone town overlooking the sea was founded by Arabs Sultans. It was
once the principle market on the trade route between Asia and Africa
and during the last century it was the point of departure for explorers
in pursuit of mysteries of Africa.
