Zanzibar City Unmissables

Stone Town, the historic heart of Zanzibar City, is a UNESCO World Heritage site characterized by its coral-stone architecture and labyrinthine alleys. The area preserves 19th-century landmarks such as the House of Wonders and the Sultan’s Palace, alongside sites reflecting the island's somber history like the Old Slave Market and Christ Church. Key cultural features include the Hamamni Persian Baths, the 17th-century Old Fort, and the childhood home of Freddie Mercury, all illustrating Zanzibar’s legacy as a cosmopolitan Indian Ocean trading hub.
