A city at the foot of the Uluguru Mountains in Tanzania, a few hours' drive west of Dar es Salaam, Morogoro has a walkable centre with a real café and restaurant scene. The city has a strong musical heritage — it was home to the Cuban Marimba Band, founded by local-born Salum Abdallah, and to celebrated musician Mbaraka Mwinshehe, who represented Tanzania at the 1970 Osaka World Expo. Sokoine University is based here, and the city sits at a major road and rail junction.
