Top 10 Unknown Facts about Mwanza to Know Before
Taking Mwanza Serengeti Safari
Mwanza as the locals love to call it the Rock
City is commonly known for being a getaway to
Serengeti National Park. Mwanza that sits around
Lake Victoria is much more than just a transit to
Serengeti National Park. There are certain
things about Mwanza you need to know before
booking a Mwanza Serengeti safari tour. Though
Mwanza is filled with interesting historical
facts, art, and culture, here are some of the
unknown facts discussed below
1.Though Dar-es-Salam is the metropolitan city in
Tanzania, Mwaza is the quickest growing city in
East Africa and is the second largest city in
Tanzania.

2.Mwanza is well-known as the Rock City as you
will find so many rock formations throughout the
city. One of the most outstanding sightings of
the city is the Bismarck Rock. There is an
amazing mystery that surrounds this structure as
people wonder how the rock came to be so balanced
perfectly. The Bismarck Rock is named after the
most well-known German Chancellor who served as a
Kaiser during the Berlin conference. This
conference divided Africa and African into
colonial assets and created boundaries around
which the current African countries are still in
dispute about.

3.The indigenous people of Mwanza are mostly
Sukuma which is the largest tribe in
Tanzania. 4.The Eastern and Central African
largest fish market Kirumba is located in
Mwanza. It should be no more surprise that
fishing along with farming is the main economic
generator throughout this region. 5.The hangman
tree in Mwanza has now become a renowned tourist
destination. Earlier, it was the place where
prisoners and criminals were hanged by the German
colonial establishment. 6.Maize, sweet potatoes,
and cassava consist of about 71 percent of all
food crops that are grown throughout the
region. 7.The growth of tourism is due to the
immense beauty of Mwanzas surrounding area and
its proximity to different national parks,
especially Serengeti National Park. When you are
in Mwanza, the distance to Serengeti National
Park is only two and half hours. 8.Lake Victoria
is the second largest lake around the world and
is partly located in Mwanza.

9.You will get to see an island in Mwanza,
Ukerere the home to the dancing rocks.
According to traditions, only men are allowed to
visit these structures. 10.Mwanza was received
global attention for the controversial
documentary Darwins Nightmare. It highlighted
how the Nile Perch was impacting the native sea
life of Mwanza.
Moreover, since its inception in 1892, Mwanza has
emerged and developed rapidly as compared to
other cities throughout Tanzania. It may not be
over hyped as Arusha or Dar-es-Salaam but it has
certainly everything to offer. Are you excited
