Natural Aquarium

The Natural Aquarium was a nice experience, especially if you're an animal lover. The Aquarium is formed through rock from water in the Indian Ocean.When fishermen go fishing and mistakenly catch turtles,these turtles are then brought into the Aquarium and kept there for a certain amount of time before finally being returned to sea.the turtles were friendly and interact with humans.we fed them and I was brace enough to swim with them, although I kept running out of the water initially.

Stone Town Stone town is an older part of Zanzibar city located in the west coast of unguja(the main island of Zanzibar). Stone town is known for its narrow alleys and beautiful doorsways built centuries ago under Arab, lndian European influences.The major buildings in Zanzibar are  predominantly from the 18th and 19th century, some of which are the Old Fort, the House of Wonder, the old dispensary and the royal Cemetery etc. The town has a narrow,winding street pattern and large mansions facing the sea, which all make up the urban settlement -a reflection of slave trade between Africa and Asia.
