“For generations the name Zanzibar has captured the imagination of
people as a far away, exotic and legendary island located in the Indian Ocean
near the East African coast.
Following the west winds, Persian, Arabic and Indian traders sailed to
Zanzibar and went back fully loaded when the winds turned east. Spices and
slave trading made the island rich and famous.
People from different continents
brought their cultures and religions and created the unique and fascinating
blend that can be found on the spice island today. During a walk through the
narrow and winding streets of Stone Town the history of the spice island flames
up into the imagination again.”
thx again Steve!
