Although not the capital, Blantyre is the main commercial and industrial centre of Malawi. Stretching some 20km, it has joined up with its 'sister city' Limbe. It's the perfect place stock up on supplies before heading off to the local attractions: Lake Chilwa, Malawi's second biggest lake (and with great wetlands) is to the east while heading west will take you to the game-packed Majete Wildlife Reserve and Lengwe National Park. Head north for some of the region's best birding at Liwonde National Park.
