Mozambique, located on the southeast coast of Africa, surrounded by the Indian Ocean in the east, Tanzania in the north, Zambia and Malawi in the northwest, the Republic of South Africa and Swaziland in the west and south, is a country with a population consisting of many ethnic groups other than Europeans, Indians, Arabs and Africans. . 90% of the people who have Bantu culture, which is the most common among ethnic groups, are engaged in agriculture. Mozambique, which was founded in 1975 after the freedom struggle and is a very young republic, remained under the rule of Portugal and England until its establishment. In the country where the official language is Portuguese, traffic flows on the right. However, almost everyone in the country speaks English. Maputo, whose name was Lourançio Markues before independence, is known as Acacia City due to the acacia trees lining its streets. The economy of the city, which has a population of approximately 2 million, is tourism. The city, where slums, unplanned urbanization and illegal people live, is also very close to Inhaca and the Portuguese Islands.

Places to visit

Maputo, the paradise city of Mozambique, is known as the pearl of the Indian Ocean, with its shores opening to the Indian Ocean, its smiling people and its unique culture. It is also possible to experience wildlife in the city, which is very suitable for both culture and sea and sun holidays. There is no luxury life in the city, where you will frequently come across the names of communist leaders such as Lenin, Marx, Mao and Che Guavera on its streets and avenues. The people of the country are quite poor, but beware of the beggars around and those who insist on selling things. One of the best parts of Maputo is that it is within walking distance of places to visit. Two days is enough to tour Maputo without haste and digesting it. It is possible to trace the history of the country in Maputo, which brings together the old and the new, poverty and wealth, colonial architecture and modernity.

It would be the right choice to start your tour of Maputo from the Maputo Train Station. The station is a structure that reflects the colonial period architecture and was built between 1913 and 1916 to facilitate freight transport by being built right next to the port. Maputo had a special importance as it was seen as an important maritime transportation line for South Africa's gold and diamond trade in those years. Although it is said that the architect of the building, which was selected as the seventh most beautiful train station in the world in 2009, is Alexander Gustav Eiffel, there are those who argue that it is actually the trio of Alfredo Lisboa de Lima, Mario Vegia and Ferreira da Costa. Inside the station, there is a museum that reflects the history of the country's railway. You can visit the fruit, vegetable and fish stalls by stopping by the Maputo Central Market, built in 1901, on 25 September Boulevard, right next to the station.

Located on R.Marques de Pombal Boulevard, a 10-minute walk from the station, Maputo Castle was built by the Portuguese in 1787. Again, on the Freedom Square road, everyone agrees that its architect is Gustave Eiffel, and Iron House was brought to the country in parts at the end of the 18th century and assembled. Today, it is used by the Ministry of Culture.

Employees Square overlooks the Maputo Station and the market. In the middle is a monument depicting the brutality of World War I. On the back street of the square, you can visit Jamma Masjid, an important building opened for worship at the beginning of the 20th century. Maputo, a city built on the edge of the bay, is indeed a very beautiful city. If you find time, do not forget to see Catembe Island, which can be reached by boat from the beach.
