Central Region

Nature & Parks · Landmarks · Government Buildings
International visitors usually start their tour of the country in Central Region, where the capital Lilongwe offers excellent transport services to every corner of Malawi. Central Region tourism depends mostly on the area's cultural legacy--some of the most popular places to visit here are the World Heritage-listed sites of prehistoric rock art. Although the region does not feature dramatic reliefs like the rest of the country, it still has its fair share of forests, highlands, and isolated hills populated by varied wildlife. Include Lake Malawi on your Central Region itinerary for a chance to discover pretty beaches, forest reserves, and a wide range of hotels and lodges catering to tourists. Add Central Region and other destinations in Malawi to your travel plans using our Malawi day trip planning tool.
