Showcasing South Africa – Maputo |
|
|
|
|
|
Located in the far south of Mozambique, Maputo (formerly known as Lourenzo Marques) is one of Africa’s most attractive capital cities.
A stroll through Maputo’s city centre will take you through magical markets where everything from fresh seafood to colourful trinkets are on offer. Visit the tranquil tropical gardens of the Hardim Tunduru Botanical Gardens or immerse yourself in Maputo’s culture by visiting the landmark train station, National Art Museum and the old fort.
A regular ferry takes visitors from Maputo's fishing harbour to Inhaca Island, a favourite destination for divers and snorkelers. If you prefer sightseeing, head south to Maputo Elephant Reserve, a sanctuary for elephant, hippos, crocs, side-striped jackal and antelope.

Where to stay
There are a couple of upmarket hotels in the city, the best of which is the Polana Hotel, with its grand view over the harbour.
