If you like quiet time surrounded by flowers and greenery, hang out at Forodhani Gardens in Stone Town. Why not take a stroll along the beaches and watch the sunset while you're here? It's also full of great shops and restaurants, so you can spend the afternoon having a wander. Want to stretch your legs some more? Head to Chapwani Island and Prison Island, both nearby.

Another iphone photo - until I transfer my camera photos. :) This time from Stone Town in Zanzibar. Having a seafood lunch at a beach restaurant, watching the boats coming and going. Not the real Tanzania, I know, but a nice place to relax for a few days and to get lost in the tiny alleys. A very historical place filled with sights and pleasant people. Just a 2h ferry ride from Dar Es Salaam. #iphone #tanzania #stonetown #beach
