    Old Fort of Zanzibar

    Stone TownUnited Republic of Tanzania1698–1710

    The Old Fort of Zanzibar, locally known as Boma la Kale, is the oldest surviving structure in Stone Town. Constructed by Omani Arabs in the late 17th century following the expulsion of the Portuguese, this massive square coral-stone fortress served as a military garrison, prison, and execution ground. Beyond its lively modern amphitheatre and craft market lie centuries-old tales of imprisoned captives, phantom marchers, and unseen spectral sentinels.

    The Pujini Ruins, located near Pujini village ten kilometres overall from Chake Chake on Pemba Island, contain the overgrown remains of a 15th-century fortified palace. Built by the ruthless ruler Mohammed bin Abdul Rahman, known by his feared moniker Mkame Mdume ('The Milker of Men'), the citadel was famed for its thick ramparts, deep moat, and brutal forced labour. Shrouded in dense tropical forest, Pujini is widely regarded as one of Pemba Island's most haunted places.
