Right in the bustling heart of Nairobi is the distinctive National Archives, the "Memory of the Nation," a vast collection of documents and reference materials. It’s mainly used by students and researchers, but the ground-floor atrium and gallery display an eclectic selection of contemporary art, historical photos of Nairobi, cultural artifacts, furniture and tribal objects.
