Outlined against the sunrise, moonrise, sunset, and twilight is the 16th-century Portuguese Chapel in Malindi , Kenya. While other buildings from that era have crumbled into ruins, this solemn chapel has stood strong as generations have passed. Its eastern wall features an adroitly painted altar crafted by the Portuguese. Outside lies a quiet, whitewashed graveyard, the final resting place of early Portuguese settlers as well as notable figures like Mr. Lawford, a pioneer commander, and Mr. Bell Smith, the first District Commissioner of Malindi.
