Zanzibar City´s UNESCO World Heritage historic core is considered to the last functioning ancient city in East Africa, full of culture and whitewashed buildings, vibrant markets, historic sites, and exotic restaurants (there's even one called Mercury’s which pays tribute to the 80s rock star Freddy Mercury, who was born here - the house where he lived as a child is even open to visitors). And dont miss Dharajani Market, is a micro universe filled with everything you could wish for and more. From dried squid, fresh fish, and spices, to trinkets, clothing and souvenirs.
