KENYA

Go Back

Kenya is a country in East Africa with renowned landscapes and sprawling wildlife preserves. The nation's Indian Ocean coastline has provided essential ports by which goods from Arabian and Asian traders have entered the continent for many centuries.

Along that coast, which holds some of the finest beaches in Africa, are predominantly Muslim Swahili cities. One of them is Mombasa, a historic center that has contributed much to the musical and culinary heritage of the country. The city's old town has been formed by Middle Eastern culture, with narrow streets, high houses with carved ornamental balconies, and many mosques.

Arab traders have influenced Mombasa in such a way that 70% of the city's inhabitants identify as Muslims-a stark contrast to the country's Christian majority. With many unreached people groups in the metropolis, Mombasa is a ripe harvest field for the Kenyan church.
