Mbabane is the capital of Swaziland and after Manzini it is the largest city in the coutry with around 80,000 inhabitants. It is located in the nortwest of the country on the Mbabane River and Polinjane River in the Mdimba Mountains. Although Manzini remains the main industrial centre of the country, Mbabane is the administrative capital and is a good base for travellers to explore the rest of the country, with decent hotels, restaurants and infrastructure. The city itself is not unpleasant but is not the highlight of the country to say the least.
