Travel Guide Ondjiva

The most southern provincial capital of the country and the furthest away from Luanda is also the Angolan city most… Namibian. The visitor will recognize in the new buildings of the private sector, such as guesthouses, materials and elements characteristic of contemporary architecture in Namibia and South Africa. Without an ad hoc adapter for the sector catches imported from these two southern African countries, it is impossible to recharge its mobile phone or camera batteries in a restaurant! Supermarkets offer predominantly Namibian products. The Santa Clara border is so close. It is also the main road axis Namibia-Angola, the most borrowed by heavy goods vehicles from both countries. Ondjiva adapts itself, becomes city-stop for road drivers and therefore offers the choice to stay and feed.Seen from Luanda, Ondjiva seems far away. This low city is unknown, however, and greatly encouraged by its geographical location. It struck an entrepreneurial spirit. Here, we are also on the land of King Mandume, a historic and legendary figure of the early twentieth century, a national hero who became a symbol of the African struggle. When you go to Ondjiva, you don't miss to get to his grave.
