Often called the “World’s Only Wildlife Capital,” Nairobi National Park is only 4 miles from Nairobi and home to a wide range of animals and plants. Fenced on three sides, the fourth open side of the park allows for migrating wildlife to move freely between the park and Kitengela plains. Animals include lions, leopards, rhinoceros, giraffes, hippos, hyenas, zebras, cheetahs, gazelles and even the Nile crocodile. © Simon Fletcher | Dreamstime.com

Permanent galleries are The Cradle of Human gallery, The Story of Mammals, The History of Kenya, Cycles of Life, Numismatic exhibition, and Asian African Heritage exhibition. © Voyageviewmedia | Dreamstime.com
Nairobi is often nicknamed Green City in the Sun thanks to its location along the edge of the Rift Valley and Ngong Hills. The city boasts many parks and open spaces, as well as recreational green areas like Nairobi National Park, Central Park, Nairobi Arboretum and Uhuru Greens. Nairobi is also home to a vast number of coffee houses, so be sure to stop into one while there. © Joshua Wanyama | Dreamstime.com
