More info about Shakaland
Originally created as a set for the hit movie Shaka Zulu, Shakaland in KwaZulu-Natal is a living museum that gives visitors the opportunity to experience the lifestyle, culture and traditions of the Zulu people. The site is named after Shaka, a great Zulu king who achieved fame through his military might and is credited with the creation of the iklwa, a short stabbing spear, and a larger Nguni shield to better protect his warriors.
Guided tours of Shakaland are offered to better understand the Zulu customs and beliefs.
