Francistown, Botswana


Francistown is the second largest city in Botswana, with a population of about 90,000. It is located in eastern Botswana, about 400 kilometers north-northeast from the capital, Gaborone. Francistown is near the Shashe River (tributary to the Limpopo) and close to the international border with Zimbabwe. Francistown was the epicenter of southern Africa's first gold rush, and is still surrounded by old and abandoned mines.
