Lusaka

Recent years have seen Lusaka become a popular urban settlement hosting a variety of different cultures. The city is made up of multistory buildings, suburbs and busy shanty towns.  While Lusaka is often considered a key entry point for tourists on a Zambia vacation to explore the rest of the country, the city hosts its own interesting highlights. Munda Wanga Environmental Park, a naturalist environment, houses yellow baboons, elephants, lions and more. It was created in 1956 as a private garden but is now an important education facility that encourages Zambians to learn about conservation. Tourists should also venture to Soweto Market which is always buzzing with activity and lays claim to thousands of stalls offering a multitude of products.
