Kenya Images
Kenya, named after Mount Kenya (below) and with a population of 39 million, is located in east Africa and borders the Indian Ocean to its south-east, Somalia to its north-east, Ethiopia to its north, Sudan to its north-west, Uganda to its west and Tanzania to its south. The recent engagement of Prince William to Kate Middleton whilst on holiday in Kenya is sure to focus attention on a country renowned for its tourism.
From tropical beaches to forests and sweeping savannahs,
Kenya is widely regarded as Africa's premier safari destination
and has been for centuries with tourism today being the largest
single export earner in the country, albeit somewhat tainted by
political events of recent years.
Germany and the United Kingdom provide most of these tourists, attracted by the country's beach and game reserves ~ however recent pirate attacks and kidnappings of visiting tourists is likely to damage the tourist sector with visitors preferring to visit safer areas of the continent.
The country is home to fifty nine conservation parks with Amboseli and Masai Mara, bordering on Tanzania being the best known. This video documentary showcases the very best of Kenya, but when watching these images try not to forget the very real challenges facing the hidden Kenya, water shortages, food shortages and many orphans and street children living in poverty.
