Nairobi- The Center of Kenya

by Tallchick80 - last update: Apr 5, 2007

Enjoy with caution

Nairobi from Nairobi Nat'l Park
Nairobi is a bustling city with so much to see and do. It's such an odd place because you'll see young Kenyans dressed in suits going to work carelessly standing next to Masai herders dressed in beads and blood red blankets waiting for a matatu. It's a city where tradition and adaptation have met in the middle, it's where progress and heritage have come together in the great country of Kenya.

Nairobi, although the capital city and a metropolis, has suffered from the effects of neglect and stunted economical progression. It sometimes felt like a city on the edge of anarchy, there are so many people everywhere, always.

You can easily enjoy Nairobi as a tourist, but it is very important to take simple precautions so that you can have a safe and enjoyable visit to Nairobi.

 hey, how did you know you could trust the local when you asked them to show you around? and did you find being female placed you as an easier target or lessened your sense of safety? (i am a 21 asian female). thanks!
