In this brief video you can find seven little known facts about Malawi.
More information about the video content bellow:
1. Malawi was the first country in Africa to grow tea on a commercial scale. Malawi has been producing tea for well over a century and it is the continent’s second largest tea producer after Kenya. The history of tea in Malawi stretches back to 1886 when seeds were taken from the Botanical Garden in Edinburgh to the Church of Scotland Mission in Blantyre and planted in the garden there.
2. The Zomba plateau is one of the most unique plateaus in Africa. The great slab rises to 2000m and, even though the city is a two hour drive away, the plateau can be spotted from areas of Blantyre. It has some astounding views and an incredible mix of flora and fauna.
3. The capital of Malawi is Lilongwe (also called Green City) which is the 2nd largest city in the country. The largest city is Blantyre.
4. In July 2016, Malawi underwent part 1 of the world’s biggest elephant translocation. In total 500 elephants are being moved from two of Malawi’s National Parks; Majete and Liwonde, to Nkhotakota. The remaining 250 elephants will be transferred from Majete to Nkhotakota for part 2 of the translocation.
5. Malawi is home to the third largest lake in Africa, Lake Malawi. It is also the eighth largest lake in the world, and the second deepest lake in Africa. Lake Malawi National Park was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1984. It is home to over 1000 species of cichlid with the vast majority being endemic. The lake is said to provide the best freshwater diving in Africa - some say the world!
6. The earliest human settlements in Malawi date back to 50,000 to 60,000 years ago. They were Bushmen people, whose rock paintings can still be seen outside the capital of Lilongwe.
7. Malawi doesn’t issue national ID cards. Malawians currently use driving licenses, passports, and in some cases voter registration certificates as proof of their citizenship.
