Kasama

Kasama, the capital city of the Northern Province of Zambia, lies at the centre of an important road network providing fast access to the other provinces. Not only a thriving commercial hub, filled with shops, restaurants, services and an airport, the town is also home to some extraordinary natural and cultural attractions. Surrounded by rugged green mountains, lush vegetation, and wide-open plains abundant in wildlife, the area is popular with outdoor enthusiasts, nature lovers and those interested in African animals. The nearby Chishimba Falls, regarded by the Bemba people as a highly sacred place, is a spectacular sight to behold – where three successive falls merge into one magnificent display. Close to the falls, the well-preserved Mwela Rock Paintings allow visitors a peek into the thoughts of ancient cave dwellers.
