One of the most affluent cities on the eastern rim of the African continent, Dar Es Salaam spells the ebb and flow of commerce for its entire province to follow. Dar Es Salaam has garnered enough wealth and fame to be branded as the richest city in the country. Dar Es Salaam is an Arabic term referring to 'the house of peace ', an indicator of Middle Eastern influence embedded in its trail of history. There are places to engage in quality time spent for the family such as the Kunduchi Water Park. The Kaole Ruins in the town of Bagomoyo rest in an abandoned, weathered state among the cluster of palm trees upon an earthen beach. The Nyumba ya Sanaa houses art galleries in recognition of visual arts covered under local talent. Official landmarks for observing the heritage of Dar Es Salaam include the Village Museum and the National Museum. Mbudya Island and the Bongoyo Island are easy getaways off the shores of Dar Es Salaam. The Kivukoni Fish Market and the Kariakoo Market are commercial areas which give a good idea of everyday livelihood of the locals. The hallmark of nightlife at the city is the Mbalamwezi Beach Club, featuring regular beach parties on the hip hop beat.
