Polokwane
Polokwane
Gateway to the great north – that’s Polokwane. The capital of the Limpopo province, this city is a vibrant mix of people and culture, and is a stepping stone to the province’s legendary bushveld and mountain hotspots. The name Polokwane means “place of peace” and it is a friendly, fast-developing city. The urban centre features shops, galleries, museums and parks, while on the outskirts you’ll find Meropa Casino and Entertainment World, a pulsating African-style entertainment venue. Polokwane offers a wide choice of lodges, guesthouses and hotels. It’s an ideal stopover between Gauteng and the Kruger National Park. Polokwane International Airport serves as a gateway to the continent, so it’s great to include in your plans for an extended holiday either before, during or after the 2010 FIFA World Cup.
