Fodor's Expert Review Tanzania National Museum and House of Culture

Apart from the Leakey fossil discoveries, which are some of the most important in the world, there are galleries that detail the history of Tanzania from occupation to independence. A contemporary art gallery and pleasant outdoor exhibits of an iron dinosaur, past presidential cars and a tribute to the US embassy bombing makes for a good morning outing. This is also a spot to learn about Tanzania's tribal heritage and the impact of the slave trade.
