Masvingo, Zimbabwe

Masvingo is the capital of Masvingo Province, Zimbabwe. It is located on the south-central part of the country.

Masvingo was founded in 1890 and was one of the earliest colonial settlements in the country. It was originally called Fort Victoria until 1982, when it was renamed Nyanda. However the name did not translate well across the local dialects, so the town was renamed again to Masvingo.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
