Dilolo, DRC: Border Trade Hub in Katanga Province
Dilolo is a border city in the southern Katanga Province of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), situated on the border with Angola, and serves as an important land route between the DRC and Angola. The city is characterized by a multicultural mix, with residents mainly speaking French, Kirundi, and other languages, and economic activity based on cross-border trade, agriculture (e.g., maize and cassava cultivation), and small-scale handicrafts. As a transportation node in the southwestern part of Katanga province, Dilolo is strategically important for the flow of goods in the region, as it connects major cities such as Lubumbashi to the Angolan railroad network. The climate is savannah, with distinct dry and rainy seasons, and the natural landscape is dominated by savannahs. Although tourism resources are not yet fully developed, the unique border and tribal culture has attracted a small number of travelers with an interest in the interior of Africa.
