Description
With a population of 4.3 million, Dares Salaam, a major city and commercial port on Tanzania Indian Ocean coast, grew from a fishing village. The open-air Village Museum has re-created the traditional homes of local and other Tanzanian tribes and hosts tribal dancing. It is part of the National Museum, which offers Tanzanian history exhibits, including the fossils of human ancestors found by anthropologist Louis Leakey. It is also the largest and most populated city in the country as well as the eastern region of Africa. Welcome to Tanzania financial hub.
