Jumba la Mtwana is the site of historical structures and archaeological relics on the Indian Ocean coast of Kenya, lying close to the Mtwapa Creek, in Kilifi county, north of Mombasa. It dates back to the fourteenth century Its features include a mosque by the sea. Description The archaeological site includes three mosques built of coral stone, a tomb and eight houses. The territory was added to the list of national monuments of Kenya on June 4, 1982. The excavations were carried out by James Kirkman in 1972. There are no written historical records about the city, but the Chinese ceramics found make it possible to trace the dating back to the fourteenth century. The absence of later sherds suggests that this settlement was abandoned at the beginning of the fifteenth century.The city was located close to fresh water sources and was protected from attack from the ocean. The architectural style is made in the Arabic style using coral blocks. The House with Many Doors is notable for its Gothic-style door. The house is divided into apartments that can accommodate several visitors.[3] The Mosque by the Sea is the best preserved ruin. Several pools were used for ablutions, and coral stone stands for washing feet. The tomb contains a funerary stele made of coral. A passage from the Koran is carved on it, but the epitaph is illegible.

Kaya are forest areas and abandoned settlements of the Mijikenda people on the coast of Kenya. Until the beginning of the 20th century they were fortified villages, but since then they have been abandoned by their inhabitants. The remains have been transformed into sacred places of ancestor worship. Committees of tribal elders have since ensured that the surrounding forests are preserved. Thanks to this practice, the Kayas are now almost the only areas in the coastal region where the once rich forest has not disappeared due to agriculture and settlement. In 2008, ten of the approximately 50 known Kayas were declared World Heritage Sites by UNESCO. kayakinondo.com de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaya_(Sanctuary) whc.unesco.org/en/list/1231 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaya_(Mijikenda) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/list_of_sites_and_monuments_in_Kenya en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digo_people

Interesting climb to the crater, which you can walk around on a 7km long circular path on the crater rim. You will always get interesting views of the crater. In places you can also see fumaroles on the walls. The path should not be underestimated, as it is partly very washed out and difficult to walk, especially as you are mostly walking in the blazing sun. Added to this are the usually high temperatures in the area. Therefore, a good supply of water and provisions is very important.

Low wall with easy foot- and handholds for scrambling. Some overhangs can be challenging practice despite the low height. The natural black glass created by volcanic activity can be dangerously sharp and cut ropes and skin. But geologically interesting.
