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.

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.

Small but excellent art museum featuring well-mounted paintings and large sculptures by Mozambican artists. Each work is labelled with name of artist, title (in Portuguese, but usually understandable), when born, and when the piece was created. Two floors.

This is an interesting natural history museum with impressive exhibitions of wildlife in Mozambique. A very interesting part is a small etnographic section on different peoples of Mozambique.
