Nairobi Sightseeing
Sightseeing Overview
The commercial and political heart of the city is in the southwest, around City Square. Here government buildings and banks mix with hotels and upmarket shops.
To the south is Memorial Park, on the site of the bombed US Embassy and Cooperative Bank building, where more than 200 Kenyans died in 1998.
To the north of Kenyatta Avenue is a densely populated district of shops, markets and hotels, including the Norfolk Hotel, Nairobi's oldest building.
East of Moi Avenue lies the poorer inner city district centred on River Road. This notorious area is home to the city's cheapest restaurants and hotels as well as most of the main bus and matatu stations. The main train station lies to the south.
