Ilha de Mozambique

This UNESCO Cultural and Historical World Heritage site was once an important stopover on the Indian spice route for hundreds of years. In 1507, the Portuguese set up a naval base there and built the Chapel of Nossa Senhora de Baluarte, now the oldest building in the southern hemisphere. Ilha de Mozambique accommodation

Maputo

Previously known as Lourenço Marques, Maputo exudes fine colonial-era architecture standing proud on Maputo Bay. History tours take culture vultures to the Paroquia Santo Antonio, an old church with stunning stained-glass windows, many art galleries and museums – and the train station’s 20th-century Praca dos Trabalhadores. Food is a cultural delight. Maputo Travel Guide.

Inhambane

Vasco da Gama called it Terra de Boa Gente or ‘Land of the Gentle People’ when he first saw Inhambane in the 1400s. One of the oldest villages in Mozambique, it was once a significant port on the southeast coast. Wander into the 17th-century Cathedral of Nª Srª da Conceição or the Inhambane Mosque.
