Port Control Tower

At first glance, the structure looks more like an airport control tower, but its height of over 50 metres is justified. Dar es Salaam's harbour is very narrow but also long and it's necessary for the shipping controllers to have a good view.

Although the tower is not open to the public, you will walk right past it on your walk from the centre to the Ferry Fish Market.
