If you only visit one thing here, make it the Chamare Museum, beautifully decorated with vibrant murals depicting scenes from Malawian history. Its three rooms concentrate on the three main cultural groups of the region (Chewa, Ngoni and Yao) and their approach to traditional beliefs, with a huge collection of Gule Wamkulu masks. A guide is included in the entrance fee; the tour takes at least an hour.
