Nampula
Mozambique
Northern Mozambique's largest city and regional commercial hub, Nampula is known locally as the "Queen of the North" and offers a walkable centre with a solid spread of cafés, restaurants, hotels, and markets. The Mozambican National Ethnographic Museum sits here, alongside cathedrals and mosques that reflect the city's diverse population. Surrounded by plains and rocky outcrops, it serves as the main transport junction linking the port of Nacala with Malawi and the broader interior.
