The Jamia Mosque in Nairobi, although Christianity is the major religion in this city.

Preachers in the park - Kenya is famous for its wandering preachers, who walk along the streets and even board buses, screaming their biblical wisdom. They are supported through donations, and are considered to be providing a public service (although I'm not sure what the non-Christians think about this). A recent new law prohibiting noise pollution in public places has hit the preachers hard, with some being fined for disrupting the peace.
