Most visitors transfer to Zanzibar without even paying a visit to the metropolis on Tanzania’s Indian Ocean coast. However, Dar es Salaam — arguably the epicentre of Swahili culture — is well worth a visit. The multicultural and diverse city of 4 million is known for its beaches, seafood and music. Sights include the National Museum, the Village Museum, the Kivukoni Fish Market, and the city's very own marine reserve on Bongoyo island.

Here you will meet a living castle and castle-life. The hotel business cares about the castle's history and it has been carefully renovated. Teleborg's castle offers hotel and guesthouses. The castle has different common areas and meeting rooms; each and every one with it’s on history, suitable for groups of eight up to hundred people. The castle also houses a restaurant where you can dine with a view over the garden. Teleborgs castle was a wedding gift from the wealthy and slightly eccentric count Fredrik Bonde af Björnö, to his young wife Anna Koskull. The exterior of the castle today is virtually unchanged and is surrounded by the castle garden.

The museum contains a marvellous collection of hand-picked Islamic artefacts, from ancient manuscripts and carvings to objects of cultural value produced during the past three centuries. These include jewellery, ceramics, fabrics, clothing and musical instruments.
