Bulawayo
This, the second largest city in Zimbabwe, has a strong sense of the colonial yesteryear.
The "Place of Slaughter".
Bulawayo means “Place of Slaughter” in Ndebele and got its name from the ongoing battles in the area. It’s the second largest city in Zimbabwe with a strong sense of the colonial yesteryear. We think that one of the most important reasons for visiting Bulawayo is the Matopos National Park where masses of unusual granite rock form bizarre balancing acts and a sense of the spiritual hangs thick in the air. There is some fantastic camping available but we suggest you plan on spending a few days as the initial entrance fee is steep but valid for 7 days. There are also lovely bungalows available which are, oddly, cheaper than camping. Hilarious warthog families will eat out your hand and plenty of beautiful little buck will grace you with their presence if your just sit quietly.
