'''Khanga''' ni [[vazi]] au [[nguo]] nyepesi pia ndefu ya [[rangi]] ambayo hupendwa kuvaliwa na [[wanawake]], hasa nchi za [[Afrika Mashariki]] na [[Afrika Magharibi]].Kawaida kanga huwa na upana wa sentimita 150 na urefu wa sentimita 110. Kanga huweza kutumiwa vazi rasmi, kitambaa cha kichwani, [[taulo]], na kutumika kwa shughuli mbalimbali kama kubeba watoto, kitambaa cha mezani, au kutumika kubeba mizigo kichwani.

Kanga inafanana na [[Kikoi]] ambacho kawaida huvaliwa na wanaume.
Mwanzoni kanga ilikuwa irembwa kwa vitone vidogo ambavyo vilionekana na manyonya ya ndege aina ya [[kanga]]. Hii ndio sababu ilipewa jina hili.
Kanga huwa na sehemu tatu: ''pindo'', ''mji'' (sehemu ya kati), na ''ujumbe''. Ujumbe mara nyingi huwa ni kitendawili au fumbo.
Hii ni mifano ya ujumbe wa kwenye kangaː
