Dar Es Salaam War Cemetery

Dar es Salaam War Cemetery now contains 1,764 Commonwealth burials of the First World War, 60 of them unidentified, and 41 from the Second World War, 7 of them unidentified. The 112 war graves of other nationalities, the majority of them Belgian and German, all date from the First World War. The cemetery also contains the DAR ES SALAAM HINDU CREMATION MEMORIAL which commemorates 14 Indian servicemen whose remains were cremated in accordance with their faith. The DAR ES SALAAM BRITISH AND INDIAN MEMORIAL which stands within Dar es Salaam War Cemetery, commemorates by name more than 1,500 officers and men who died in East Africa during and after January 1917 (the advance to the Rufiji river) who have no known grave. The memorial was moved from a site elsewhere in the township and re-sited in Memorial Garden A. The earlier casualties are commemorated by a similar memorial at Nairobi, Kenya.

Chuma Art Workshop

Wonder Workshop was home of 30 plus physically disabled men and women from all over Tanzania. For more than 11 years it was committed to training and empowering the artisans with skills like welding, carpentry, paper and bead making. In October 2017, Wonder Workshop was officially closed as it ran out of Business. Chuma Art Worskshop is a story of hope to the Artisans who were still very passionate about the authentic detailing, sculpture and designing the weldedart pieces. Chuma values the quality of the items we design, every piece of scrap metal was intentionally placed to compliment every other that completes the whole sculpture or functional item. Four Brave Artisans, found Chuma Art Workshop in December 2017, and it been growing ever since. Out BIGGEST DREAM is that we are able to improve living standards of as many physically disabled artists as we can reach. By reading and sharing this articale you are helping us achieve this dream and we thank you! Also Welcome to our Work

Tingatinga Arts Cooperative Society

Reviewed By DrJamieB19 - Philadelphia, United States

I traveled with my adult son and teen daughter and we each found something we loved at the Tingatinga Arts cooperative. Adamson's #007 had authentic wood carvings, ceremonial knives, and portraits, and the stalls on both sides had collectables as well. We went three times and would have stayed longer (and shopped more) if they had a place to eat and relax.

Kivukoni Fish Market

Reviewed By CaliGuy01 - San Francisco, United States

This is a must see if you have the stomach for it. I think this is a very important place in the city you see the fisherman and crew bringing the days catch from boat to market. There is also kitchens to cook the food. It is a very interesting place to see.

St. Joseph's Cathedral of Archdiocese of Dar es Salaam

Reviewed By kilovolt500 - Bangkok, Thailand

St. Joseph’s Cathedral, Roman Catholic, built by Germans more than 115 years ago, impressive architecture, outside and inside, with stained glass windows, the whole structure reminded me of churches in Germany. On 1 September 1990 Pope John Paul II addressed the faithful in this cathedral. I visited the cathedral on a Friday and surprisingly a church service was in progress. The cathedral is very well maintained.

Reviewed By borisd491 - Durham, United States

This is the best place to purchase tourist cultural souvenirs in Dar es Salaam. The prices are negotiable. There are some inexpensive statues, jewelry artwork and etc. The vendors are Tanzania friendly! Mwenge has been in operation for over 30 years.
