I go to Dar almost twice a year..... and love walking around each time lol

Nice Altafbhai - I spent my childhood living on Zanaki Street near the Odeon roundabout. I and my friends used to mess around on the Odeon Roundabout in the evening. Do you remember 'kara' the old jugu (roasted peanuts) seller. He only used to sell for a few hours each evening and many people used to be disappointed when he sold out his day's stock of various snacks he used to sell like BC, jugu mawe, 'bafela' jugu (boiled peanuts) etc etc.

I don't remember kara as I used to live in Kariakoo. We used to get jugu bisi, dariya etc in Kariakoo as well

I remember the Ithna-asheri Mosque close to Walji's Travel (at the corner). It was painted white at that time. I see it has changed. This was back in the late 70's. Thanks for the upload! 👍👌🙏 I'll be there next year. First stop Unguja, thereafter TZ Bara na MSA.

Excellent clip,Altafbhai..There were 2 Alimanga buildings in my Dar time..1952-64..was born in Dar 1952..my birthplace...so in US terminology,I am IndianTanzanian..One Alimanga building is the one that you always show in the clip and the other one was bang opposite to this existant one...just next to vegetable vendors round the corner..a smaller one though.and just next to it,towards earlier Kisutu Housing was our Maratha Mandal,..There was a huge hotel at Dallas Super Market location on way to my school,Mtendeni..Ask your Dad or Natasha's Dad..They might recollect..!!

City Centre is relatively safe. You however need to be vigilant and careful not to flash your phone or wallet in public

Hello.... Unfortunately they do not allow you to record the class in progress and students. When I went, the school was going on and therefore I couldn't record the classroom. Sorry about that. You will see the video I did of Mtendeni school on my channel as well -

Appreciate the efforts you put into filming these videos. Great job
