Durban and more...

by dutch_anna - last update: May 18, 2003

Durban is an old city, with beautiful 19th century buidings.
I have been there too short to tell you much about it.
The center, around the statue of Queen Victoria with the red brick buidings, the parks, especially the Mitchell Park with flowers and birds and the marina and boulevard along the ocean are "must see activities", imho:-)
souvenir wire bicycle.
Those bicycles are made as a souvenir, but I have seen children playing with them. Also with small cars, made of wire. 4 wheels, about 25 cm long, and with a rope to pull it. In Zambia and the poor parts of South Africa it was the number 1 toy for toddlers (and bigger).
I have seen a man made them, very handy and quick.

 I always love to see pictures from Durban and KZN. If it wasn't so far to travel there, I'd be there several times a year.

 It's always a pleasure to see South Africa pages. 21/4/2003: Have not been to Durban but would love to explore its culture. Maybe next time! Thanks for the info :-)
