About Kondoa Rock Art Sites
Why Visit Kondoa?
Spread across dozens of rock shelters in central Tanzania, the Kondoa paintings depict humans, animals and abstract symbols created by successive hunter-gatherer and later pastoralist communities over an extraordinarily long period. Their density and time-depth earned UNESCO World Heritage status.
Kondoa sits in central Tanzania, away from the main safari circuit, appealing to travelers with a specific interest in archaeology and rock art as part of a broader Tanzania trip.
