Mombasa (Kenia) ass de griisten Hafen an Ostafrika.
Moies se mer an de Nguuni Sanctuary gefuer, den an de Nguu Tata Hiwelen leit.
Virum Scheff war den Tourismusminister amgaang dem Kapitän d'Plakett ze iwerreeschen, déi all Schef krett, wann et fir d'ischt an engem Hafen aleeft.
No villem Hin an Her hu mer en Taxi fonnt, den eis an de Park gefouert huet. Et ware nemmen 14 km.
Hei puer Explikatiounen iwer de Park, déi ech um Site vum Park fonnt hunn:
"In 1956, Dr. Rene Haller, a swiss-born environmentalist, moved to Africa and in 1959, was employed by the Bamburi Cement Company to grow fruit and vegetables for its workers.
In 1970, Dr. Haller persuaded the Bamburi Cement Company to give him access to acres of its disused quarries. It was a wasteland; abandoned and forgotten.
Although reclamation of industrial wasteland was virtually unheard of, Dr. Haller believed he could bring life there again. He pioneered sustainable agricultural techniques and after decades of careful observation of how plants and animals interact, and a series of trial and error experiments, Dr. Haller successfully transformed the land.
What was once a barren, limestone quarry, now exists as the Haller Park; a tropical coastal rainforest.
Man had taken life from the land, but used nature to restore it.
Over 2 million trees were planted in the quarry and a wide range of insects, butterfly, bird and mammal species were introduced - all of which play a key role in maintaining the balance of the ecosystem.
Throughout the 1970’s, Dr. Rene Haller took from the lessons he had learned at Haller Park and continued to rehabilitate the disused quarries scattered along the Mombasa coastline.
The Nguuni Nature Sanctuary being one of these restoration projects.
Today, he has transformed much of the seven square kilometre Bamburi site from a barren and dusty lunar landscape to an ecological haven.
The quarries are now a combination of lakes, wetlands, savannah grasslands, with walking and cycling trails, as well as a Nature Park and Wildlife Sanctuary."
D'Fondatioun Haller huet och eng Rei sozial Wierker: Maternité, Dispensaire, Aarbichtsbeschaafung, edukativ Aktivitéiten
E Guide huet eis zu Fouss duerch de Park gefouert a mir hunn vill Déiere gesinn.
Geent Mëttig se mer zréck an d'Stad gefuer bei de Fort Jesus. Den alen Deel vu Mombasa leit op enger Insel: Stone Town. Vum Fort Jesus se mer duerch d'Stad getreppelt: d'ischt an den ale Quartier, dunn iwer de Boulevard Haile Selassie, a Moi-Avenue Richtung Hafen. Ennerwee ware mer eppes drinken op eng Daachterrass vum Hôtel Royal an der Heile Selassie-stroos. Flott Vue iwert Mombasa.
Du hate mer den Ivory-Monument vun den Elefantenzänn verpasst. Mir senn du vun der Enn vun der Moi-Avenue mat Tutuken bei d'Monument gefuer a dunn zréck op den Hafen.
