2022 Zanzibar City, Tanzania
A quiet lane in Stone Town, photographed in 2022, shows the coral-rag construction typical of the old quarter. 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.
