What to do in Malawi: The Incredible Country where Fish is King!



Have you ever imagined a country where a fish is so important that it even appears on the national flag? Yes, this place exists and is called Malawi, in Africa. An incredible country, rich in culture and with spectacular nature.


Malawi is known as the "Warm Heart of Africa" for its incredible hospitality and friendly people. But, let's start our trip by learning a little more about its best tourist spots.

 

First we have Lake Malawi, one of Africa's greatest natural wonders and home to more species of fish than any other lake in the world. Then, Liwonde National Park, a jewel for safari lovers. Mulanje mountain is another unmissable attraction, a real challenge for adventurers on duty. The capital Lilongwe is also worth a visit, with its vibrant local market. Last but not least, we have Lake Malawi National Park, where you can swim among colorful cichlids, a unique experience.



The local currency is the Malawi Kwacha and the official language is English, but the Chichewa language is also widely spoken. For Brazilians, it is necessary to apply for a visa to enter the country.

Speaking of the socioeconomic situation, Malawi is one of the poorest countries in the world. The economy largely depends on agriculture, with the majority of the population living in rural areas. Politically, Malawi is a multi-party democracy, although it has faced challenges in terms of governance and corruption.

We were in Lilongwe and Blantyre and also many villages where we did social and missional work, the people were always very welcoming to us.



But now, let's return to the curiosity of our title. The tilapia fish, present in Lake Malawi, is so important that it is on the country's flag! Incredible, right?
