The Old Boma of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania is one of the oldest buildings in the city. It is located at the intersection of Morogoro Road and Sokoine Drive, facing the harbor and adjacent to City Hall. It was built in 1866-1867 by Majid bin Said, Sultan of Zanzibar, near his palace (now demolished). He also commissioned other buildings in the same area, such as the White Parents’ House. Under German colonial rule it was restored and expanded. Distinctive features of the building include the carved Zanzibari-style wooden door and coral stone walls.
Boma now houses the Dar es Salaam Architectural Heritage Center (DARCH) which is a tourist information center and also has a permanent exhibition on the architectural development of Dar es Salaam.
