Steeped in a proud history and looking ahead to a bright future, Bulawayo, Zimbabwe’s second city and industrial capital is known for its laid-back character and the easy-going, gregarious nature of its people. The City of Kings – so-called as it was the capital of legendary Ndebele kings Mzilikazi and Lobengula – retains its air of majesty.  With its generously wide streets, it typifies, in the most positive way, the oft-cited laid-back character of African cities.  It’s relaxed, charming and inviting - the old and the new moulded effortlessly into one.
