KwaZulu - Natal

Despite being a relatively small province, KwaZulu/Natal has a concentration of everything travelers come to South Africa for. There's the Drakensberg mountain range with its scenic views plus beaches, savannas and historic Boer War and Anglo-Zulu battlefields.

KwaZulu/Natal has a population of over 8.5 million (over 21% of South Africa's total population), mostly Zulus and a thriving Zulu culture is still in practice today.

The province's center of population and administration is the Durban/Pinetown area which also has the main concentration of South Africa's Asian population. The provincial capital is Pietermaritzburg.
