It is located in an area of granite hills about north of Harare and is named after the enormous and beautiful granite hills. The name is derived from Dombo meaning rock and Shava translating to light brown. The clan name Shava is a reference to the light brown colour of the Eland or Mhofu in Shona.
The three largest shopping centers (commonly known as grocery points in Zimbabwe) are Mverechena, Mkate and Showground.
