| Page Views: 835 Last Visit to Dar es Salaam: March, 2006 | My sweet Dar Es Salaam by Rawicz - last update: Jul 12, 2007 |
This city (pop. 2,489,800) remains the political and economic capital of the country, even though the official seat of government was moved to Dodoma in 1973. Often referred to simply as Dar, the city has few important sights for visitors. But its dusty atmosphere and some remaining colonial architecture provide a good look at a part of East Africa very different from the wildlife parks. Most travelers forgo Dar's crowds, noisy markets and humidity and head off to another part of the country. |
