It is the administrative Capital of the Zambezia District, and stands 25 KM from the mouth of the Rio dos Bons Sinais (or "River of the Good Signs"). The river was so-named when Vasco da Gama, on his way to India, arrived at the rivere and saw "good signs" that he was on the right path. The town was at the farthest extent of Dr. David Livingstone's famous voyage through Africa.
