Manhiça District
Manhiça District is a district of Maputo Province in southern Mozambique. The principal town is Manhiça. The town of Manhica is notable for the research center CISM (Centro de Investigacao em Saude em Manhica) and the Manhica District Hospital, both institutions work closely together. The CISM receives several international students each year, especially from Spain, and so there are several expats living in Manhica at any given time. Manhica lies northwest of the capital city Maputo, roughly 1.5 hours by car.
The main road in Mozambique, Estrada Nacional 1, or N1, goes through the town of Manhica. There you find three of the four restaurants in town, some pharmacies, an open-air market, a gas station, and stores.
The African dialect spoken in the Maputo province is Shangana. Portuguese is the official language.
