An area of the Limpopo where the juxtaposition of old and new never ceases to amaze, it
is moreover a land of legend and romance that will intrigue present-day
visitors with tales of ancient tribes and fearless pioneers who braved the
unknown in the days of old. To this day the province is the home of the
enigmatic rain queen who, as the legends of her people proclaim, has the
mystical power to make rain.
Steeped in history, the Limpopo celebrates a rich cultural heritage and at many archaeological sites the mysteries of the past and ancient peoples are still being unearthed. The present tranquillity of the province belies a turbulent past, to which many monuments and museums attest.
Much of the land, particularly in the Kruger National Park and other game and nature reserves, is unspoilt providing sanctuary to large numbers of game.
And for those who wish to experience the thrill of Africa in a more tangible manner,
wilderness areas and trails, hunting safaris and hikes may provide the solution.
The four regions of the Limpopo represent a microcosm of varied and interesting cultures, growing industries and an expanding tourism industry. Each region is unique, each worth a visit.
The beauty and infinite variety of the province will not only delight all who visit, but will entice visitors back again and again.
