Bagamoyo is a quiet, small town with historic roots. In the old days it was an important trading town with its strategic harbour along Africas east coast. It also used to be were the slaves taken from inland Africa were keept before sent to the slave market in Zanzibar – and then to the Middle East and India. There is small a museum in Bagamoyo located at the old Catholic mission grounds and there are memorials from both Stanley and Livingstone. It was from Bagamoyo these guys traveled inland to «discover» Africa and to find the source of the Nile. Bagamoyo was the capital of the colony of German East Africa, and many buildings still exist from the time. Well worh a visit is also the sandy beach of Bagamoyo (with and without the fancy hotels).
