The map
Lusaka Map Poster & Print
Lusaka sits on a high, gently rolling plateau in central Zambia, and its map begins with a straight line: the railway running north to south through the city. Beside it runs Cairo Road, the main commercial street, a long straight axis lined with shops and offices. From this spine the city spreads outward, east toward the government districts and in all directions into widening residential areas.
When Lusaka was chosen as the capital of Northern Rhodesia in the 1930s, it was planned as a garden city. That plan survives in the eastern districts, where Independence Avenue, ministries and embassies sit among curving streets and generous plots. Elsewhere the map is denser and more varied, with planned suburbs, informal settlements and major roads such as the Great East Road leading out of the city.
Lusaka is the capital and largest city of Zambia and one of the fastest-growing cities in southern Africa. Its name is thought to come from Lusaaka, a village headman who lived in the area. A Lusaka map poster shows how a railway settlement became a national capital, from Cairo Road to the edges of the plateau.

Why Lusaka
A map that means something
Lusaka is a city many people know through work, study or family, and its plan is easy to recognise once seen: the railway, Cairo Road and the leafy east. A black-and-white print records that shape clearly, as a reminder of home or of years spent there.
