Zanzibar is part of the East African country of Tanzania.
It consists of the islands of Zanzibar, and Pemba,
in the Indian Ocean, off the coast of Tanzania. Zanzibar is
famous as the world's leading producer of cloves. These 2
islands, along with nearby Mafia Island are collectively
called The Spice Islands. Other spices grown here are
pepper, nutmeg and cinnamon. Tanzania's primary industries
are tourism and cultivation of spices. You can explore the
beautiful beaches and aromatic plantations of Zanzibar, on

is the economic hub of Zanzibar and a quaint and picturesque

winding alleys, and fascinating architecture that reflects
elements of African, European and Indian cultures. Stone Town
is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The ancient houses built
from coral and stone are very grand. With elaborately carved
gates and brass-studded wooden doors, the houses proclaim
the status and wealth of the families within.
