    • A lot of buidlings in Maputo is run down and is in desperate need of repairing. But there are also beautiful places. Buildings from previous eras in between the rest.

    We walked the streets of Maputo as we believe this is the only way to see.

    • Another amazing place. I don't know that much about building styles but this looks Moorish/ Spanish to me. In any case I wouldn't mind a house like this.

    • On the way back to the airport I took this photo. It was raining and it was taken out of the window. It is quite a way out of town and there are many squatter camps in the area.

    I saw a few of these shops next to the road.
    Here you can buy anything from a colourful bucket to bananas. In SA there are many of these Spaza shops. Mainly in the township areas for those who find it difficult to get into the city.
