Nairobi

The city of Nairobi is the largest in Kenya. The locals often refer to it as the "Green City in the Sun," and today it has grown into a bustling center of commerce. Thousands of businesses are located in the city, and more than 100 major global companies have headquarters there as well. The city is also home to the Nairobi Stock Exchange, which is one of the largest stock exchanges on the continent and the second oldest there. Although most large businesses located in Nairobi have their headquarters in the Central Business District, many companies are considering moving out to the edges of the city, where it is easier to build the type of facility they want and the land is much cheaper to buy.

Nairobi sits between Mombasa and Kampala, two other major Kenyan cities. It is also next to the Rift Valley, which means that the city sees quite a few earthquakes, although most of them are minor. Mount Kenya is to the city's north, and Mount Kilimanjaro is to the southeast. On a clear day, both mountains can be seen from the nation's capital city, which is also the seat of Nairobi County. The Nairobi River and all of its tributaries also run through the county.

One of the most beautiful features of the city is the large number of parks and open areas that are spread throughout it. There are quite a few green areas there. Uhuru Park is probably the most popular park in the city. Many outdoor rallies and other festivities are held there.
