Umzingwane

Eastern Africa

Umzingwane is a village in Matabeleland South province, Zimbabwe, and the seat of Umzingwane District. It has one of the most important railway stations in the nation, because it connects the Beira to Bulawayo railway with the Beitbridge to Bulawayo railway. That junction role gives the small village a significance in the national rail network well beyond its size, and its status as the administrative seat of the district makes it the local centre for the surrounding rural area south-east of Bulawayo.
