  • The Askari Monument is a statue that is located at a roundabout in Dar es Salaam connecting Samora Avenue with Maktaba Street. The Askari Monument was built in 1927 as a tribute to the African soldiers who fought in World War I on the allied forces side in Africa. A German statue used to be at the place of the Askari Monument, which was then removed by the British when they arrived in Dar es Salaam in 1916. (stopping is not permitted but there is time to take pictures from inside the vehicle) (pass by)
  • The Slipway Shopping Centre

You will find treasures in shops selling a whole range of goods from fabrics to sandals, beaded necklaces, and more. Don’t forget to bargain and shop around at the market, as prices are negotiable and you may find a similar item for half the price at another stall.
