The magical "roof of Africa" Kilimanjaro
Fly kilimanjaro, a magical existence like a city in the sky. I came to Tanzania, a paradise of animals.
Located in northeast Tanzania, Mount Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain in Africa and the tallest volcano in the world.
The main body of the mountain extends in an east-west direction for nearly 80 kilometers, consisting mainly of three extinct volcanoes of Kibo, Mawonsi and Greece, and its central volcano, Cone Hulu Peak, at an altitude of 5,892 meters, is the highest point in Africa. Mount Kilimanjaro is known as the "roof of Africa," and many geographers call it the "King of Africa."
Tanzania, here is a paradise for animals
The plane arrives at Arusha International Airport, which is next to a pristine animal base. There are many wild cattle and sheep running here, raising a lot of dust, and at a glance you feel that you have come to the world of animals.
One-third of Tanzania is home to national parks, animals and forest reserves. There are 14 national parks, 21 nature reserves and 50 wildlife control areas. Simply a country of animals.
Ngoro is picturesque and the most beautiful in May. This is not actually a crater, but a volcanic mortar. If you popularize the science, the ground volcano rises from the ground, then the crater must be at the very top. Surrounded by four walls, this "sinkhole" is the largest surviving complete volcanic mortar on Earth. There are many kinds of wild animals that can be seen here, and due to its magical geographical environment, all the animals cannot escape from this ecological circle.
Patches of wildebeest and zebra form the most original charm of Africa. All kinds of animals meet here, tigers, lions, hippos, giraffes, elephants, they live very freely in this African land.
The crater is on the plateau, like a giant "basin", the "basin" is 19km long from east to west, with an area of 315 square kilometers, and more than 30,000 large wild animals are "in captivity". Known as the "Last of Eden" for wildlife, it is one of the "Eight Wonders of Africa".
Wild lions are very vigilant and always look for prey. We were in a group of people riding in a local buggy and it was very safe. But the tickets are quite expensive, and the ticket to the safari is $200 per person.
It is very close to Kenya, the natural ecosystem within the volcanic mortar is relatively stable, the animals do not have to migrate hard, the tigers are lazy, the wildebeest and ostrich behave very calmly, and there are dozens of black rhinos inhabited here, which is the most dense black rhino in the world. The black guides exchanged information on the radio, but did not dare to rush closer, because as soon as the wind blew, they immediately fled.
Want to see the animals and wildebeest in the air, in Arusha, Tanzania will not disappoint you. Ngoro beauty, beauty in the morning and night clouds covered by fog, wild animals live freely, roaming in between, beautiful pictures slowly unfold in front of the eyes. If you are lucky, you can also meet the gorgeously dressed Maasai people grazing herding, which is very national.
