The Nairobi National Park, unique by being the only protected area in the world with a variety of animals and birds close to a capital city, is a principal attraction for visitors to Nairobi. The park supports a diverse environment with a wide variety of fauna and flora along with manmade dams that are home to certain species of birds. The park is also one of the most successful of Kenya's rhino sanctuaries and is one of the few parks where a visitor can be certain of seeing a black rhino in its natural habitat. Some of the wildlife that can be seen in the park includes wildebeests, zebras, giraffes, impalas, elands, buffalos and large predators such as lions, leopards, hyenas and cheetahs.
