Nkhoma Mountain

Reviewed By davidzJ3414RI

From Nkhoma the beginning is really easy to walk to a little plateau. When you start with the mountain the first half hour you can easily walk. The last half hour you have to use your hands often, but even for a not experienced hicker it is good possible to get to the top. Fro the top you have a STUNNING view!! With clear weather, early in the morning it is possible to see Lilongwe and even lake Malawi:)

Old Town Mall

Reviewed By V7593GYneilg - Southampton, United Kingdom

I am so pleased that I found the Old Town Mall before the end of my stay in Lilongwe. It was a place of calm where you could browse at your own leisure, in sharp contrast to the frenetic, and occasionally intimidatory, atmosphere of other shopping malls and markets in the capital. The quality and range of the goods on display, all with a local provenance, was excellent whether that was tourist souvenirs, local produce or even an old-fashioned bookshop. And don't forget to have a meal in the Veg-Delight restaurant.
