Tanzania

Tanzania, located in East Africa, is a country renowned for its diverse landscapes, rich cultural heritage, and abundant wildlife. The mainland, often referred to as Tanganyika, forms the larger part of the United Republic of Tanzania, which also includes the semi-autonomous region of Zanzibar. The mainland is bordered by the Indian Ocean to the east, offering stunning coastlines and pristine beaches, while inland, it boasts a variety of terrains including savannas, mountains, and vast plateaus.
One of the most iconic features of Tanzania’s mainland is Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest peak in Africa, standing majestically at 5,895 meters (19,341 feet). This dormant volcano attracts thousands of climbers and adventurers from around the world each year, eager to reach its snow-capped summit. The surrounding Kilimanjaro National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is home to diverse wildlife and lush forests, adding to the allure of this natural wonder.
