Windhoek is the capital city of Namibia. It is situated in the midst of the country in a lovely green valley between the Eros and Auras mountains. This town was the previous stronghold during the German colonization and the architectural buildings which survive thus far make vacationers understand the overwhelming affect the Germans had. This consists of the administrative building which is the primary vacationer middle which has museums (Owela and State) Different architecture embrace Christuskirche Palace, Tintenpalast palace, Alte Feste and Gross Barmen. The mix of old and modern architecture makes the city stunning and really attractive.
Etosha National park is the largest and most impressive with a wide variety of game. This park was conserved in 1907 and has a total space of about 22,270 square kilometers. About one hundred and fourteen mammals and three hundred and forty hen species have been recorded here. This park has three resorts namely Hatali, Namutoni and Okaukuejo all of which have water holes. Large numbers of animals converge here at any time of the day or evening thereby allowing tourists' time for game viewing and in addition photographing. The Etosha is an attractive geographical characteristic shaped from a shallow depression. It is 1065m above sea level and types an enormous salty hollow which is sometimes crammed with water. This hollow is surrounded by bush and vegetation which provide meals to many wild animals akin to zebras, lions, elephants, leopards, cheetahs, kudu, hyena, springbok, giraffes, jackals and gemsboks.
Namibia Desert is the worlds' oldest desert and, it stretches from Kunene river to the north and the Orange river to the south. It borders the Atlantic Ocean to the west. The cold Benguela current that sweeps down the African continent creates a morning fog over the country which helps many animals and plants to survive. Some attractive sites in this area embrace the Swakopmund Town. It is situated within the seaside where the palm timber, promalesades and the colonial architecture add to its beauty. Walvis bay town lies south of Swakopmund. It was discovered by the early whalers as a uncommon deep water bay on a shallow coastline. It is dwelling to about forty percent of South African pink flamingos and numerous hen species.
The Skeleton Coast makes a unbelievable scenery. It's here that skeleton bones and shipwrecks are swept by the cold sea breezes and seen scattered all over the coastline. Skeleton Coast is situated within a park; however only part of the realm is open to the public. Spitzkoppe iceberg is a rock climbing Mecca and is one other fascinating site. The climbing is tough and involves tip toeing as you make your way up the rock cracks.
