Casa de Ferro (The Iron House)
Famous because many believe it was designed by Gustav Eiffel. It was actually designed by the Belguim Joseph Danly using the "Danly System" - one of the oldest prefab construction methods.

Praia da Costa do Sol
Maputo has a number of sides, most of the walking tours are restricted to one small area of the old city. Our tour shows the burgeoning Costa do Sol where the beach is being embraced and skyscrapers are multiplying. On Saturdays there are always bridal parties using this picturesque location for memorable photos.
