Maputo has tons of beautiful colonial, architectural buildings worth viewing, like the Maputo Railway Station, a thriving music scene, gorgeous beaches, tons of artisanal craft, and a blend of exotic foods. We also highly recommend one of the city’s walking tours to get an introduction into the city’s history and culture, starting with the Maputo Fortress, or the Iron House one of the most popular Maputo tourist attractions. Head to the iconic Independence Square for some impressive views of the city and then to the Tunduru Gardens to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city center. Be sure to spend some time at Feima, a local craft, food, and flower fair where local artisans show off their work. You can take home a souvenir in the form of local wooden crafts to straw bags and colorful, local textiles. There are also several foods stands selling the local fusion of African and Mediterranean fare. If you have time to spare, check out one of the local white sandy beaches just outside of the city.
