About this Vwawa map poster
Vwawa is the capital of Songwe Region in southwestern Tanzania, in the highlands of Mbozi District. The town is modest in size. From above it reads as a small cluster of streets around its administrative centre and market, surrounded by farmland on rolling hills. Roads branch out to villages, and the main highway toward the Zambian border passes close by.
Songwe Region was created in 2016, when it was separated from Mbeya Region, and Vwawa was chosen as its seat. That new role has brought government offices and new construction to what had been a farming town. The surrounding district is well known for its coffee, and it is also home to the Mbozi meteorite, one of the largest iron meteorites ever found.
A Vwawa map poster shows a town in the process of becoming a regional centre. New roads and plots extend from the older core, while a network of rural tracks connects it to the highland farms that sustain it. The result is an open, uncluttered composition, with plenty of space around a clear and growing centre.
