Next, head to the Old Fort (Ngome Kongwe), a 17th-century structure built by the Omani Arabs.
Continue to the Sultan’s Palace (Beit al-Sahel), once the residence of the Sultan’s family.
Stroll through the narrow streets to the Anglican Cathedral, The cathedral's striking architecture, and the adjacent memorial to the abolition of slavery.
