Located in Tanzania, near the border of Kenya, '''Mount Kilimanjaro''' is one of the [[Earth]]'s most famous mountains, certainly the most famous African mountain. It is the tallest mountain in the African continent, and the tallest free-standing mountain in the world, at approximately 5,895 meters (19,341 feet), although it is actually a stratovolcano. Its name translates roughly from swahili into "White Hill." | Located in Tanzania, near the border of Kenya, '''Mount Kilimanjaro''' is one of the [[Earth]]'s most famous mountains, certainly the most famous African mountain.
