You can find out much about the history of Tanzania among the ruins of Bagamoyo on the coast north of Dar Es Salaam. Around 5km south of the town, the mosques and tombs at the Kaole ruins from the 13th century illustrate the country’s roots in Islam, while there are also many historical sites linked to the town’s ivory and slave trading activities in the 19th century, when it was the original capital of German East Africa. As well as a wealth of history, the town is also known for its beautiful beaches and its dhow fishing.
