Introducing Blantyre
Blantyre – the commercial and industrial capital of Malawi – is a more happening city than Lilongwe, although that’s not saying much. It stretches for about 20km, merging into Limbe, its ‘sister city’. Most travellers stop only for a few days to send or receive mail, buy maps and books or pick up a visa for Mozambique. This is probably long enough to check out some interesting sights, the most global selection of cuisine in Malawi, several enjoyable bars, and a fair selection of places to stay.
