Entrance Door Of The Swahili Museum, Lamu, Kenya

Lamu is a small town on Lamu Island, in kenya, near the Somalia border. Lamu town is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site as it was one of the original Swahili settlements along coastal East Africa. The town's history is marked by a Portuguese invasion then the Omani domination, like in Zanzibar. The streets of Lamu are very narrow, so there are no cars, only donkeys to carry everything! © Eric Lafforgue www.ericlafforgue.com

Guy Says African Architecture Isn't Showcased Compared To European And Asian, Posts 44 Of Its Gorgeous Examples

The glories of African architecture are often shamefully overlooked. Sadly, this is a symptom of a larger problem overall, where the rich diversity and culture of the African continent is largely glossed over in international media. Most reporting from the continent focuses only on issues that reinforce negative stereotypes – those of poverty, disease and war.
