Chisemwa Cha Lunda

Back in September I had the chance to visit another part of Northwestern Province, Mwinilunga. I was up there for the annual Lunda festival, Chisemwa Cha Lunda. This festival is held at the end of the dry season to usher in the rainy season and bring about good harvest for the people in the coming months. We were hosted by Chief Kanongesha at his palace during the festival.
The festival was a lot of fun. Great dancing, great entertainment and great people. It was the first of what I hope will be many cultural experiences here in Zambia.
