They say a picture is worth a thousand words and I agree. Most people tend to love taking photos anywhere they go so that one day, they can go through them just to remind themselves of past memories. From the world's powerful personalities to toddlers, they like taking photos and so does Obama, the US president.

Last week Obama visited Kenya, the land of his father after he last came in 2006 as a senator. Obama was received warmly by Kenyans who had waited for long to see him. Being his 50th country to visit since he became president, Obama also took photographs in Kenya the same way he did when he visited the other countries.

His visit seems to be symbolic to Kenya as the nation had celebrated her 50th Independence anniversary in 2013.

Below are some of the best photos Obama has ever taken during his visit to the 51 countries.
