Tanzania - Central Tanzania (PDF Chapter)

This is the Central Tanzania chapter from Lonely Planet’s Tanzania guidebook.

Central Tanzania lies well off most tourist itineraries and that’s just the way we like it. Exceptional and enigmatic, the Unesco World Heritage–listed Kondoa Rock-Art Sites are the region’s premier attraction. And then there’s Dodoma, an intriguing relic of nationalist ambition with interesting architecture and the region’s best facilities.
