'''Zanzibar''' is a famous trade town in [[Tanzania]] in [[Africa]]. For many centuries, traders would trade [[food]], [[spice]]s and exotic [[animal]]s. Traders came from round the world, including [[Spain]] and [[Portugal]]. Later, it became an important city for trading slaves. Now, with its past behind it, it has transformed into a beautiful coastal resort town, including a Hilton hotel. Zanzibar is where Portuguese and the native African languages mixed to form Swahili, which is still spoken along much of the coast of Eastern Africa. | '''Zanzibar''' is a famous trade town in [[Tanzania]] in [[Africa]].
