Itezhi-Tezhi is a small town in the Southern Province of Zambia.

It lies west of the town of Namwala on the border of the Kafue National Park.

On 17 November 2021, President Hakainde Hichilema returned Itezhi-Tezhi to Southern Province.

The dam was created to hold and regulate the water flow in the river for Kafue Gorge Upper Power Station, downstream.

The largest employer in the town is the electricity company ZESCO.
