Lubumbashi, Republic of the Congo

Displayed:   times.

Located in the south some 1500 km southeast of Kinshasa, Lubumbashi is pretty close to the border with Zambia and things here tend to be pretty different form the rest of the country. With about 1 millioen people, Lumumbashi, is a relatively compact city with gardens, nicely kept homes and red-dirt roads. There aren't any real sights or attractions, but a tour to see the mines that brought the region its wealth in the 1970s is well worth your time. More info on: www.world66.com
