Description

Dodoma is the capital city of Tanzania, located in the central part of the country. It became the capital in 1974, replacing Dar es Salaam. Dodoma was chosen as the capital because of its central location, which is more accessible to the entire country and provides a strategic advantage for governance and administration.

The city is situated at an elevation of about 1,200 meters above sea level, which contributes to its relatively moderate climate compared to coastal areas. Dodoma is known for its vibrant culture, with several local markets and festivals that showcase the traditions and customs of the diverse communities in the region.

In terms of infrastructure, Dodoma is developing rapidly, with ongoing projects aimed at improving transportation, healthcare, and educational facilities. The city is well-connected by road and has a growing population, making it a focal point for economic growth and investment in Tanzania.
