Dlaczego warto: Bujumbura?

Bujumbura lies on the northeastern shore of Lake Tanganyika, one of the deepest lakes in the world, with green hills rising behind the city and the mountains of the Democratic Republic of the Congo visible across the water. In 2019 the political capital of Burundi moved to Gitega, but Bujumbura remains the country's largest city and its economic centre. It is a laid-back place with a warm climate, and very few tourists.

The lake is the main attraction. Sandy beaches north of the city are popular at weekends, with simple restaurants where you can relax and watch the sunset over the water. Ask locally before swimming, as hippos and crocodiles live in parts of the lake. Rusizi National Park, close to the city where the Rusizi River meets the lake, is a good place to see hippos and many water birds, often from a boat. In town, the Musée Vivant is a small living museum with local animals and a reconstructed traditional homestead. Be sure to try mukeke, a fish found only in Lake Tanganyika, usually grilled or fried. Most visitors arrive by air at Bujumbura's international airport. The best time to visit is the dry season from June to September. Before you travel, check your government's current travel advice.
