Nairobi National Park, National park in Nairobi, Kenya.
Nairobi National Park extends across 117 square kilometers of African savanna with thick woods and rolling plains between 1500 and 1800 meters elevation.
Kenyan authorities established this first national park of the country in December 1946 to preserve natural spaces near the capital.
The park contains the Ivory Burning Site Monument, a strong symbol of Kenya's commitment to protecting elephants from poaching.
Visitors reach the park in 28 minutes from central Nairobi via the A104 road, with three camping areas equipped with electricity.
Black rhinoceros, lions, buffalos, and leopards live in this natural sanctuary only 7 kilometers from the urban center.
