Six Things to Do in Lusaka, Zambia, Lusaka, Zambia (B)

Lusaka, the capital of Zambia is a pretty interesting city, I found. Quite honestly, it didn’t have a whole lot available for the casual tourist, but I still quite enjoyed my low-key seven days day there, spread out in three chunks over three weeks. If you’re on limited time, I do suggest at least two full days in the city as well as access to a vehicle (either rented or hiring a driver). Most of what I recommend below are not located in downtown Lusaka but rather spread around the city. However you decide to move around town, make sure you hit as many of the recommendations below!

I usually like checking out art museums or galleries when visiting somewhere, and of course, there are a number of such places around Lusaka. Art is a great way to get a flavour for a new place and it can help put historical or social context around other sites you visit in country. I also find galleries and art museums to be relaxing so if you’re tired from sightseeing or stressed over something that didn’t go as expected, art may bring your stress levels back down (though, if you’re like me and hate modern art, don’t choose a modern art place). ......
