It was later abandoned in the early 17th century and gazetted as a historical monument in 1927 and declared a National park in 1948. Adjacent to the ruins is the Arabuko Sokoke Forest Reserve which is the largest lowland forest in Kenya unique for its rare birds such as amani sunbird, sokoke rumped elephant shrew and brush tailed mongoose.
