How to get a Mozambique visa from Zambia

Mozambique is famous for the quality of its fresh seafood. The Portuguese influence is felt in dishes such as peri-peri (hot and spicy) prawns and peri-peri chicken. The country is also popular for its fantastic artwork -- the northern regions of Mozambique are famous for their crafts, including sculptures produced by the Makondo people.

Mozambique is a relatively safe place and most travelers shouldn't have any difficulties. That said, there are a few areas where caution is warranted.

Mozambique is a republic located in southeastern Africa on the Indian Ocean, bordered by South Africa to the south, Swaziland to the southwest, Zimbabwe to the west, and Zambia, Malawi, and Tanzania to the north.

Mozambique has made great strides in reducing poverty. But with nearly 50 percent of the population still living in poverty, this progress has not been fast enough.

Portuguese is the official language, although this is generally only spoken by the more educated amongst Mozambique's population. Besides this, more than 60 different dialects of Bantu languages can be found in Mozambique.
