Domboshava, also written Domboshawa, is a peri-urban residential area in Mashonaland East province, Zimbabwe, in an area of granite hills about 27 kilometres north of Harare. It is named after the large granite hills: dombo means rock and shava means light brown, the colour of the eland, which in Shona is mhofu and gives the Shava clan name. The most prominent hill is Ngoma Kurira, a name meaning drumming, and the site attracts hundreds of local and international travellers each year.
