The map
Chavuma lies in Zambia's North-Western Province, close to the Angolan border. The Zambezi rises in Zambia, flows briefly through Angola, then turns back into Zambia near Chavuma. On a map the river is the defining line, broad and winding, with its bends passing close to the town.
Just north of the town are the Chavuma Falls, a stretch of rapids where the Zambezi narrows over rock before it continues south across the plains. The settlement itself is modest, with a few roads, scattered buildings and paths leading to villages and fields along the river.
A Chavuma map poster is about the river first. The Zambezi's channel, bends and floodplain take up much of the frame, and the town's roads and tracks form a lighter pattern around it. This makes a quiet, open composition. The Classic and Blueprint styles bring out the course of the river particularly well.
Near Chavuma the Zambezi enters Zambia again from Angola, and its broad, curving channel is the strongest line on the map.
North of the town the river narrows over rock into a series of rapids, one of the notable features of the upper Zambezi.
The Angolan border lies close by, and roads and tracks connect the town to riverside villages and the rest of the province.
