Emakhazeni Tourism Association Info Office

Here is Silvia at work at our new Emakhazeni Tourism Office. As we await a prominent office with plenty of tourist feet passing through, we keep our work going through an admin office. Now our office is tucked away in Siyathuthuka, Belfast. No more commuting to work; our office is operating from Silvia’s rather compact family home in Entokozweni Section, Siyathuthuka. Skype calls to Silvia are punctuated with cocks crowing and chickens clucking as they pass through the Mahlangu garden! Well this is one way to take the concept of tourism to township folk! Tourism is for all! I no longer want to hear young black people telling me that tourism is for “the rich white people.” We are looking for all the craft makers and dance and drama groups we can find, to add to our list of tourism attractions in our beautiful Emakhazeni Highlands of Mpumalanga.  We are looking for all the craft makers and dance and drama groups we can find, to add to our list of tourism attractions in our beautiful Emakhazeni Highlands of Mpumalanga. We are already known for our fly fishing, hiking trails, horse riding, beautiful country scenery, internationally renowned rock climbing, as well as ancient stone circles and SA War history. Now we are adding Ishumi Lasemzansi T shirt (and more) brand,( sold from a well known Internet Cafe/barber shop in Siyathuthuka),Winnie’s Wee Jazz Bar and Restaurant, Chicken Dust, Ikhono Lethu Beadwork of Wonderfontein and the Shisa Nyamas to our list of attractions. Through the work we are doing with Open Africa, we will soon get all our attractions on the map.
