Clock Tower · Downtown (Kati)
The landmark everyone navigates by: the downtown roundabout with the white clock.
Tip: Legend says it sits halfway between Cairo and Cape Town: measured in a straight line it is 3,760 km to Cairo and 3,889 km to Cape Town, so it almost gets it right. The exact midpoint of that line falls far away, in the Congo Basin.

The Freedom Torch on its pedestal, on the Uhuru roundabout: the symbol of Nyerere's ujamaa.

The 70s concrete block where accords for half of East Africa were signed and the Rwanda Tribunal sat.
Tip: Watch out for the claim that still circulates: the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda closed at the end of 2015. What remains in Arusha is the UN Residual Mechanism, and it moved to its own premises. The AICC cannot be toured inside without clearance.

A caldera 3 km across with a swamp at the bottom, buffalo and monkeys: they call it the little Ngorongoro.

The 4,562 m above sea level volcano that towers over the city: Tanzania's second highest, after Kilimanjaro.
Tip: It is not a day climb: it takes 3 or 4 days and TANAPA requires an armed ranger the whole way, because of the buffalo and elephants in the lower forest. You start at Momella Gate.
