Zanzibar is a symbol of Tanzania’s multicultural heritage, a historical crossroads of African, Arab and European cultures. Located on the western side of the island, its well-protected deepwater harbor was once a major hub for international trade. Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, showcases a labyrinth of narrow streets lined with historic buildings that reflect an array of influences. The island’s lush landscapes, fringed by white sandy beaches and the blue waters of the Indian Ocean, complement its vibrant cultural tapestry.
