Safety Score: 7.5/10 · Value: 8.5/10 · Beauty: 7.8/10

Moroni is the capital of the Comoros, a volcanic archipelago nation in the Indian Ocean between Madagascar and Mozambique. The Comoros are known as the Perfume Islands for their extraordinary production of ylang-ylang (used in Chanel No. 5 and many perfumes), cloves, and vanilla, the islands supply 80% of the world's ylang-ylang. Grande Comore (Ngazidja island, where Moroni sits) is dominated by Mount Karthala, one of the world's most active volcanoes and the largest active volcano in Africa. The old medina of Moroni, with its Arab-African architecture, labyrinthine lanes, and ancient Friday Mosque, is one of the Indian Ocean's most authentic historic quarters.
