CAPITAL CHAOS

by DAO - last update: Feb 4, 2006

When you first drive into Maputo you start to feel excited and scared all at the same time. That mixed emotion continues throughout your whole stay. Next to Colonial grandeur are symbols of Communist idealism and people scavenging thorough rubbish looking for food. In a decade this will be a great place to visit. For now every criminal and Policeman sees you as a potential robbery victim. You can definitely see the past and the recent scars of a bloody civil war. Underneath you can just start to feel the art and music that will one day make this city great.
