Jengalo is an important town in the Southern Highlands region of Tanzania, located in Iringa District, about 500 kilometers southeast of the capital city of Dodoma. The town is about 1,500 meters above sea level, has a mild and pleasant climate, and is the center of trade and administration for the surrounding agricultural areas.
Jengalo is dominated by the cultivation of maize, beans and other crops, as well as livestock farming, making it a key node in the food supply chain in southern Tanzania. Several small farms and cooperatives are located around the town, creating an economic ecology based on agriculture.
As an important hub connecting southern and central Tanzania, Jengalo is connected to the cities of Iringa and Mbeya via the A7 highway. The local population, predominantly Huehue, retains a traditional dance and farming culture, and a harvest festival is celebrated annually.
Jengalo is surrounded by the Usamba Mountains and an extension of the Ruaha National Park, making it suitable for eco-tourism. Visitors can experience authentic rural Tanzanian life here and travel to nearby Iringa to visit historical sites and waterfall landscapes.
