2022 Stone Town, Zanzibar, Tanzania
The old town of Zanzibar City, Stone Town, appears in this 2022 photograph with its characteristic narrow streets. Stone Town grew as a Swahili coastal settlement that became a major Indian Ocean trading hub under Omani Sultanate rule, dealing in spices, ivory and enslaved people during the 19th century.
