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.
