Fukuchani Ruins
About
Found on Zanzibar, Fukuchani Ruins sits along Nungwi Rd in Fukuchani, Tanzania. The site is an attraction that draws visitors interested in the island's older stone remains. Reaching it from the main resorts is straightforward, since the road connects the northern coastal strip where Nungwi, Kendwa and Matemwe lie. Stone Town, Paje, Jambiani, Bwejuu and Kiwayu also sit within the island's network of roads and tracks. A rating of 4.1 out of 5 from 147 reviews reflects how visitors have responded to the ruins over time. Both islands are low coral islands surrounded by reefs, with mangrove forests along parts of the coast. The Zanzibar red colobus monkey is found only on Zanzibar, and the Pemba flying fox only on Pemba. The long rains, masika, fall from March to May, and the short rains, vuli, in November and December, so the drier months suit a visit to an outdoor site. Dalla-dalla minibuses and boda-boda motorcycle taxis are common, and traffic drives on the left. The 147 reviews behind the 4.1 rating suggest a site that has held steady interest.
