Views from the cannons place are extremely mesmerizing: ships, port, islands.

Historical icons at Forodhani. I recommend to have a guide for short town trip.

Zanzibar Cannons hold significant historical value, but there isn't much else to explore. They're scattered across the island, primarily in Stone Town. While they offer a glimpse into the island's past, there isn't extensive sightseeing. However, nearby, you can enjoy a leisurely stroll through the park and find various places to eat and drink, making it a decent spot to pause and learn about Zanzibar's history before continuing your exploration.

It’s okay. Then need a plaque to explain.
