While Jamia Mosque is tucked away in between other buildings there are striking views to be glimpsed of its intricate structure from many different angles. Easily the most impressive religious structure in the capital, the interior is off-limits to non believers
Where visitors can learn about Nairobi, its history and culture. The museum was founded in 1910.
This is a museum housing only special exhibits, so the featured artwork is always changing.
Spacious park in the city centre. Attractions include a monument, playground, boat rental.
The best place to get that far ranging view over the sprawling, congested metropolis that is Nairobi. You can go up to the saucer-shaped top of the conference centre's round viewing tower and depending on smog and fog, you might be able to see as far as the slums and the national park.
Very nice park to walk and to relax from the hectic town. Because of entrance fee you will not be molested by beggars, sellers, etc.
