Namibia
The country is home to diverse wildlife, including a significant cheetah population. The capital, Windhoek, and coastal town Swakopmund contain German colonial-era buildings. In the north, Etosha National Park’s salt pan draws game including rhinos and giraffes.
NamibRand - Sossusvlei
NamibRand and Sossusvlei are amazing desert destinations in Namibia. NamibRand is a private reserve with diverse landscapes, from dunes to mountains. You can hike, stargaze, and see wildlife. Sossusvlei is a salt and clay pan with huge sand dunes, up to 400 meters high. You can visit attractions like Dune 45, Big Daddy and Deadvlei, and enjoy the contrast of colours and shapes.
Swakopmund
Established by German colonists in 1892, the city’s colonial landmarks include the Swakopmund Lighthouse and the Mole, an old sea wall. Next to the lighthouse, the Swakopmund Museum documents Namibian history. Inland, the elegant Swakopmund Railway Station, now a hotel, also dates to the colonial era.
Windhoek
The city developed at the site of a permanent hot spring known to the indigenous pastoral communities. In the decades following, multiple wars and armed hostilities resulted in the neglect and destruction of the new settlement. Windhoek was founded a second time in 1890 when the territory was colonised by the German Empire.
