AFRICA Overview Animal Kingdom
Walk across the bridge from Discovery Island into the village of Harambe in Africa. As you walk towards the Kilimanjaro Safari you see in front of you the 40 foot baobob tree (the traditional icon of the African savannah). Harambe was inspired by Lamu in Kenya but there are no exact replication of streets or buildings.
