Kijipwa mosque ruins

Located a few kilometers from the Mombasa/Malindi highway, some 100 human skeletons and skulls, believed to be of slaves, have been discovered in this area by archaeologists. It is believed that the site was a holding ground for the African slaves before they were shipped across the Indian Ocean to the Middle East and other parts of the world. The mosque itself looks like a collapsed building now but it will be fascinating when you see it and learn of its users.
