The Nairobi National Museum serves as Kenya's flagship cultural institution, showcasing world-famous hominid fossils, extensive wildlife galleries, and diverse ethnographic artifacts that trace the nation's natural and cultural history. Nearby, the Nairobi Gallery occupies a historic 1913 building known as "Point Zero"—the geographical center from which all distances in Kenya were historically measured—and houses the prestigious Murumbi Collection of rare African textiles, jewelry, and contemporary art. In the heart of downtown, the Kenya National Archives functions as both the custodian of millions of official government records and a public museum, displaying a vast collection of traditional crafts and rare photographs detailing the struggle for independence. Complementing these indoor collections, the Maasai Market is a vibrant, open-air mobile market that rotates through various Nairobi.
