Religious Buildings

In this city of almost one million inhabitants, 70% of whom are Muslim, there are a lot of mosques. Unfortunately, non-Muslims are not usually allowed to enter them, although you can have a look from the outside. There are also two large Christian churches that are worth seeing. Wander some more and you'll pass various Hindu, Jain, Sikh and Hare Krishnan temples.

Mandhry Mosque in Old Town is an excellent example of Swahili architecture, which combines the elegant flourishes of Arabic style with the comforting, geometric patterns of African design; note, for example, the gently rounded minaret.
