REGIONS : Dar es Salaam and The Swahili Coast [Tanzania]

DAR ES SALAAM AND THE SWAHILI COAST [Tanzania]

To most travellers, Dar es Salaam is just a convenient port of call on the way to more exotic destinations of Zanzibar, the game parks, Pemba or Mafia Islands. This is a great pity, as the city is a fascinating tropical port that is well worth a visit.

With a population estimated around 2,500,000, it is also the country's richest city and an important economic centre. Though Dar es Salaam lost its official status as capital city to Dodoma in the mid-1970s, it remains the centre of the permanent central government bureaucracy and continues to serve as the capital for the surrounding Dar es Salaam Region.
