Mutare, Administrative center in eastern Zimbabwe
Mutare sits at an altitude of 1,120 meters, surrounded by mountains that form a natural border between Zimbabwe and neighboring Mozambique.
The settlement started as a fort in 1897 and developed significantly with the construction of railway connections to Bulawayo and the Mozambican port of Beira.
The Mutare Museum contains exhibitions of traditional Shona culture, while Murahwa Hill features ancient rock paintings and Iron Age village remains.
The city maintains an extensive network of 274 kilometers of paved roads and 230 kilometers of gravel paths, connecting all major districts.
The National Gallery of Zimbabwe in Mutare displays regional art collections in a building near Christmas Pass, with views of the surrounding valleys.
