Namibia

Namibia is remarkable and unique. It has one of the lowest population densities in the world and bizarre desert scenery. Huge sand dunes, dry desert mountains, and amazing plant and animal life are some of the highlights.

Etosha Game Park is one of the best game parks in Southern Africa. It is home to many lions, rhinos, elephants, buffalo and hippos. All sorts of less well known but equally interesting creatures (like bat-eared foxes and honey badgers) are also found there.

The peoples of Namibia are diverse and interesting. They include one of the oldest cultures on earth: the San or "Bushman" peoples. The German colonization of Namibia has resulted in a peculiar cultural mix. Parts of the country still have a fascinating German colonial atmosphere and culture.
