Wonderful Zulu Kingdom, with its Durban Gateway
Mr. Bongani Mthiyane from Tourism KwaZulu-Natal (Zulu Kingdom), speaks to the Mole about their South African province of KwaZulu-Natal a multi-cultural showpiece destination by the warm Indian Ocean on the east, with Durban as its gateway city. Showcasing Zulu tradition, linked to the legendary Zulu kings KwaZulu-Natal is also proud of its coastal iSimangaliso (Greater St Lucia) Wetland Park World Heritage Site; the mountainous 'Barrier of Spears' uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park World Heritage Site, with its Stone Age cave paintings.
The Mole found most Interesting South Africa's democracy movement had its beginnings in KwaZulu-Natal, Durban. This is where Mandela found his mentors and Mahatma Gandhi, yes Gandhi, started his career, leading the expansive Indian immigrant population towards gaining basic rights. Also interesting, the Zulu Kings managed to repel colonization by the Portuguese and others...
While Durban overlooking Africa's busiest picture-postcard seaport and beaches, it is a favorite for tourists city for those seeking sophisticated fine dining and entertainment, before heading on to explore KwaZulu-Natal's great outdoors - from wave riders to hang-gliders, and golfers to mountain bikers; their Big Five nature; unique arts and crafts; battlefields of yesteryear between Zulu, Boer and British.
