Maputo, the lush capital of Mozambique, sits on the shore of the Indian Ocean. Founded as a port town by the Portuguese, the influence of travelers and traders from Africa, Asia, and Europe, has made the city a diverse and lively metropolis. The area is famous for its prawns in peri-peri sauce, a spicy concoction made from an especially hot African chili pepper. Calm down your taste buds afterwards with a beer at one of the many bars and nightclubs in the Fere de Populare neighborhood.

Went there with a small fishing dhow, was one of my most unique experiences as a pod of dolphins passed by while on our way to the island.

Also known in town as the lemon-squeezer, this church is a landmark not to be missed when visiting Maputo. Its shape is particular and recognizable among all. The contrast of its materials: rough concrete and delicate stain steel is to be mentioned. Its games of light created by the disposition of the stain glasses inside is adding to the particularities of the place. The church is open to the public for visits but also for worshipping.

Mozambique’s southern province of Maputo is home to this reserve, a sandy and humid habitat that is still working to replenish its wildlife population that was destroyed in 1970s civil wartime.
A very charming nature reserve close to Maputo with a great variety of animals to be seen, plenty of signs warning about the elephants, although one elephant was having a bad day, lovely visit.

Fortaleza is a restored fort at the fishing port. It's one of Maputo’s oldest buildings. Artist displays recreate the history of the fort and the lives of indigenous people during the Portuguese takeover before and after independence. Views of the city and Maputo Bay are spectacular!

Old but well managed building. Train station terminal at downtown Maputo, in front of the lady statue from the colonial era. Busy place. Difficult to get parking. Closer to the harbour and Fortaleza De Maputo. Also advisible to visit ... historical monuments ...

This was an amazing stop! The market is gorgeous with vendors selling everything you can think of. The market is also surrounded by a nursery and has a few restaurants/cafe/bars which serve nice cold beers on tap. The kids area needs a little TLC but our toddler enjoyed walking around.

The cathedral is what it's called. Unique, spectacular, a true work of centuries-old architecture. The exterior view offers an unimaginable beauty, but the interior of the cathedral is where the imagination went beyond. I recommend that you visit the interior to get an idea of what I mean.
