From an aerial view Zanzibar archipelago may seem as a tiny rock amidst the vast waters of the Indian ocean but a closer look reveals an intricate insight to the beauty and history of this one of a kind Island whose first recorded history dates back as far as 60 AD appearing in “The Periplus of the Erythaean Sea”, written by a Greek merchant who was living in Alexandria and later in the works of Claudius Ptolemy, the famous Greek geographer living in Egypt recorded in 150 AD.
