Namibia’s old German buildings retain a distinctive colonial flavour and serve as great backdrops for historical films. This colonial architecture is mainly found in parts of the capital city, Windhoek, as well as the coastal towns of Swakopmund and Lüderitz.
Namibia provides road access to five other fascinating countries: Angola, Zambia and Zimbabwe to the north, Botswana to the west and the Republic of South Africa to the south. |
