Khoja Shia Ithna-Ashari Masjid
Mosque
👍 Large mosque that is well designed and welcoming. The wealthy and poor pray side by side and eat with each other. The preachers preach on simplicity and tolerance and encourage interfaith dialogue. Caution - the men and women do not sit in the same section.

Tinga Tinga Arts Cooperative Society
Art gallery
👍👍 Loved the art at this co-operative society. Large variety of styles and size of paintings. Very reasonable prices, even pre-bargaining. A helpful English speaking representative guided me around the place. While all the art is mostly canvas mounted on frames, he told me they could take it off the f...

Fun City Kigamboni
Water park
👍 Fun as the name suggests with many rides although some are paid some are free. They have 4 swimming pools, 2 for slides, 1 for kids and 1 wave pool which is 1 of their attraction. They need to add new rides and slides. Many shops for snacks drinks, they also have a nice restaurant near the prayer ro...

The Tanzanite Dream
Gemologist
👍👍 We visited 8 jewelry shops around Dar es Salaam looking for the best price on a particular 18K white gold and Tanzanite pendant to take home (to the US). This store is a little off the beaten path in what looks like a residential neighborhood, but once inside, it is impressive. What I liked best was...

Coco Beach Cliff
Tourist attraction
😐 Beautiful beach, fine white sand. Long walk lined with very typical bars. If you're a tourist they try to be a little clever. At times even insistent. There is room for swimming, a wavy and fun ocean. Possibility to rent life jackets. The gem are the bays on the north side. Peaceful, wild, beautifu...

😠 You cannot enter the place without a permit. That you need to get a permit from some building in town & the people there are not particularly helpful with directions Such a shame that a historic monument like that is not easily accessible to the general populace.

Botanical garden
🫤 Pretty tired (botanical) garden and associated buildings, originally set up by the German colonisers in 1893. It is more or less abandoned although, fortunately, some specimens took root before being neglected. Upon entering a 'guide' will engage in conversation with you as he shows you around the v...
