Township tours
South Africa
Abuzz with vivid social culture, a township simply must be visited, as
it represents and reflects joy in freedom, human rights, justice and reconciliation.
It houses many significant locations of the apartheid struggle from the
Hector Pieterson memorial in Soweto to the forced removals to Langa in
Cape Town.
With the ‘shebeens’ (brewing houses) and the ‘sangomas’
(witchdoctors) selling ‘muti’ or cures for every ailment,
a township visit is a unique, emotional and sensory experience. Each township
tells its own story about its establishment, its struggle through the
apartheid years and its current situation.
