🇰🇪 Nairobi, Kenya – The Beating Heart of East Africa
Nairobi, Kenya
Nairobi, Kenya’s capital and largest city, is a dynamic cosmopolitan hub for commerce, innovation, and culture. Nicknamed the “Green City in the Sun,” it blends modern urban life with natural beauty—from bustling markets and cultural festivals to the nearby Nairobi National Park.
The Denver–Nairobi sister city affiliation was formalized on March 2, 1975 and launched with a “Salute to Nairobi” celebration featuring Kenyan dance, folk art, handicrafts, and products throughout downtown Denver.
