STONE TOWN AND ITS DOORS

Stone Town is well known for having a great amount of old doors in different styles. The indian ones with the spikes on it to prevent the elefants that never existed on Zanzibar to enter the houses. I hardly actually can see where an elefant could find place in the narrows streets. And then we have the Oman, arabic styled doorrs in wood as well.  All of them well decorated and very very old.
It's a pleasure to stroll around the town and take pictures of them.





A shop that sells children dresses.

This last dorr is actually taken outside Stone Town in a village in the countryside.
