EU: Afrikaresa, Zanzibar - dhow harbour (1961)
1961 Zanzibar City, Tanzania
Zanzibar's dhow harbour appears here in 1961, with wooden trading vessels crowding the anchorage that served Stone Town's waterfront for generations. The port sat at the heart of the island's long history as a trading hub on the Indian Ocean.
