Parklands

The Aga Khan, who spent his early childhood in Nairobi and is now one of its most illustrious benefactors, has a hospital, a university and school named after him. It is traditionally an Indian/Asian zone dotted with mosques and Hindu temples. Named after City Park and has numbered avenues. Most of the bungalows are been related by multi storey residential and commercial buildings. Local entertainment centres around Diamond Plaza, a few steps from Highridge. Known affectionately by the local population as Little India, this arcade of shops, bars and restaurants draws a mostly young crowd from within the area and beyond. The bars and clubs of Westlands are also just a short drive away. There is no bus service through Parklands but there are plenty of matatus on the main roads.
