Kenya is a country in East Africa, located on the Indian Ocean. It includes savannahs, lakes, the spectacular East African Rift Valley and mountainous plateaus. It is also home to wildlife such as lions, elephants and rhinos. Kenya attaches great importance to wildlife protection and prohibits the sale of rare animal products such as ivory and rhino horn, and violators will be severely punished by local laws. Travel in Kenya, transit are not allowed to buy, sell, carry ivory and other items. There, talking about the trade in rare animal products is considered taboo.

Lamu Island, located off the northeast coast of Kenya, has historically been an important way station, and the fusion of Eastern and Western cultures is fully reflected in Lamu's architecture, which is a mixture of Swahili and Arabic styles.

Lamu Island, located off the northeast coast of Kenya, has historically been an important post, settled by Arabs since the 9th century, passed by Zheng He's fleets in the 15th century, and flourished under the Sultan of Oman in the 19th century with the ivory and slave trade.

Lamu Island is the most densely populated island in the Lamu Islands, with 17,000 people, 99% of whom are Muslim, and the reason for the concentration of the population is said to be because only Lamu Island can produce non-salty groundwater.

On the island of Patay, there are descendants of some Chinese sailors who settled here, some with some distinct Chinese characteristics.

Lamu is a peaceful tropical island where life seems to have changed little over the centuries, yet its history is as mysterious and fascinating as the winding streets of its medieval stone town.

Lamu was founded in the 14th century during a Swahili migration. But the island has welcomed many visitors, including Portuguese explorers, Chinese traders and Arabs from Oman, all of whom have left their mark here.

The integration of Eastern and Western cultures is fully reflected in the architecture of Lamu, where the buildings are a combination of Swahili and Arab styles, even the houses built by the new immigrants also maintain the same style, so the town of Lamu basically maintains the appearance of ancient times.

The Mara River bisects the Maasai Mara. It is home to crocodiles and hippos and a lifeline for other wildlife. Its numerous tributaries feed the vast landscape.

The Mara River bisects the Maasai Mara. It is home to crocodiles and hippos and a lifeline for other wildlife. Its numerous tributaries feed the vast landscape. The Mara River originates in the rainy mountains and never stops flowing even in dry times, rising sharply during the rainy season from March to June.

During the world's most spectacular wildlife migration, which takes place in August-September every year, crossing the swollen rapids of the Mara River and being blocked by crocodiles is the most difficult and spectacular scene, which is known as the "Mara River Crossing" or "Heaven Crossing".

During the 3,000-kilometre annual migration, only 30 per cent of wildebeest make it back to their starting point due to hunger, thirst, exhaustion or predators. But before the rainy season, another 400,000 wildebeest were born. The birth of new life and the elimination of the weak are repeated here every year.

The Masai Mara National Park is considered the most famous wildlife sanctuary in the world, a haven for animals consisting of 1,672 square kilometers of open plains, woodlands and riparian forests. Established in 1961, the Masai Mara National Park is home to the world's largest wild mammal population, with 95 species of mammals and 450 species of birds.

The vast meadows are dotted with herds of zebras, giraffes, antelopes, and wildebeests; The acacia forest is full of birds and monkeys; Elephants and buffaloes roll in the vast Msiara marshes; The middle reaches of the Mara River are teeming with hippos and crocodiles. All this nature cut off contact with the noisy city.

The Mara is known as the kingdom of lions. These majestic, powerful predators dominate these grasslands. Cheetahs are also very common here, as are hyenas and small predators such as fox wolves. In the middle of the day, the prairie heat is rolling in, and all the predators are sunburnt to sleep, so it is best to visit the predators in the early morning or after sunset.

The Masai Mara National Park is home not only to animals, but also to the Maasai people. The Maasai were a fighting people known throughout East Africa and lived as nomads. The warriors all had long hair and wore red or brown masseilles, while the women had shaved heads or only short hair.

The Maasai still practice polygamy. The outermost layer of the village is surrounded by prickly dry branches to prevent the invasion of wild animals, and in the middle is a hut made of cow dung, the door is wound around the inner wall, and there are several gaps in the middle for people to enter and exit. Houses made of dried cow dung are generally small, but sturdy and can last at least seven years.

Nairobi National Park, established in 1946 and located just 7 km from downtown Nairobi, is the first national park in East Africa and the only national park in the world located in a capital city.

Nairobi National Park, established in 1946 and located just 7 km from downtown Nairobi, is the first national park in East Africa and the only national park in the world located in a capital city. The park covers an area of 117 square kilometers, with more than 100 kinds of mammals and 400 kinds of unique migratory birds living here, mainly antelope, zebra, cheetah, leopard, giraffe, wildebeest, hippopotamus, rhinoceros, lion, bison, orangutan, baboon, ostrich, guinea fowl and so on.

This is a "semi-open" park, many animals such as wildebeest, zebra, giraffe, antelope, etc., often migrate inside and outside the park, leaving during the rainy season and returning during the dry season. For this reason, there are no barriers in the southern part of the park, which serves as a passage for animal migration. To protect African elephants, the Kenyan government has banned the trade of ivory and ivory products. In 1989, President Moi personally set fire to 25 tons of ivory and other hunted goods in Nairobi National Park.

To commemorate this famous action, an ivory burning site was set up in the park and a monument was set up. But there are no elephants in Nairobi National Park, the only large animal absent. In 1963, an animal orphanage was opened next to the park to take in and treat abandoned and sick animals until they were able to return to the nature.

Lake Nakuru National Park is located in the south of Nakuru City, the capital of Kenya's Rift Valley Province, covering an area of 188 square kilometers, is a park specially established for the protection of birds, one of Kenya's wildlife parks. In 1960, Lake Nakuru, together with the nearby grasslands, swamps, forests and mountains, was designated as a bird reserve, and in 1968, it was officially declared a national park, one of the first national parks in Africa to protect birds.
