Overview
Mwanza is Tanzania's second-largest city, sprawling across granite kopje-studded hills on the southern shore of Lake Victoria — the largest lake in Africa. The city serves as the gateway to Rubondo Island National Park and offers a fascinating lakeside character shaped by the enormous freshwater sea that surrounds it, with dhow-building yards, fish markets trading in Nile perch, and sunset boat trips across the shimmering lake. The distinctive Bismarck Rock in the bay is one of Tanzania's most photographed landmarks.
