Lake Manyara National Park
Lake Manyara is a beautiful national park near Arusha. There's dense forest, open grasslands and the lake. In the forest you'll see a great number of baboons and on the grasslands we saw many giraffes. The park has an excellent visitors' center. Here's a web site (new window) describing the park. Unfortunately my digital camera produced many 'overexposed' pictures due to a wrong setting, so there's not much to show here.
