Stone Town
Stone Town also known as Mji Mkongwe (Swahili for "old town") is the old part of Zanzibar City, the main city of Zanzibar, in Tanzania, as opposed to Ng'ambo (Swahili for 'the other side'). It is located on the western coast of Unguja, the main island of the Zanzibar Archipelago.
HMS Pegasus (1897)
HMS Pegasus was one of 11 Pelorus-class protected cruisers ordered for the Royal Navy in 1893 under the Spencer Program and based on the earlier Pearl-class. The class were fitted with a variety of different boilers, most of which were not entirely satisfactory, and by 1914, four ships had been withdrawn. They had all been condemned in 1904 but were reprieved and remained in service, with scrapping proposed in 1915.
Amaan Stadium
Amaan Stadium (also spelled Amani) is a football stadium in Zanzibar, Tanzania. It is currently used mostly for football matches. The stadium holds 15,000 people. The stadium was the location of a ceremony uniting the Afro-Shirazi Party and the Tanganyika African National Union into the Chama cha Mapinduzi. The flags of the respective parties were raised and lowered for the last time with the flag of the Chama cha Mapinduzi then being raised. The ceremony took place on February 5, 1997.
Bububu
Bububu is a town on the Tanzanian island of Unguja, the main island of Zanzibar. It is located on the central west coast, 10 kilometres north of the Zanzibari capital of Stone Town. The town is predominantly a densely populated industrial town, but it is also noted for its beach, which is one of the best within easy reach of the capital. One of the first railways in Zanzibar was built in 1905 to connect Bububu to Stone Town.
Fuoni
Fuoni is a village on the Tanzanian island of Unguja, part of Zanzibar. It is located five kilometres to the southeast of Zanzibar City, immediately to the east of the village of Mwana Kwerekwe. Several Daladalas (small local busses) with the number 504 are transferring from the Darajani to Fuoni.
Kibweni
Kibweni is a village on the Tanzanian island of Unguja, part of Zanzibar. It is located on the west coast, five kilometres to the north of the capital, Zanzibar City, on the road to Bububu and Chuini.
Battle of Zanzibar
The Battle of Zanzibar was a naval battle of the First World War between the Kaiserliche Marine and the Royal Navy. The German cruiser SMS Konigsberg had been taking on coal in the delta of the Rufiji River when her crew were told that a British cruiser—HMS Pegasus, which had been part of the Royal Navy's Cape Squadron sent to counter Koningsberg—had put in at Zanzibar for repairs. Konigsberg′s captain—Commander Max Looff—decided to attack Pegasus while she was in port.
