Namibia

Namibia is one of the driest countries on Earth, yet its landscapes range from the towering red dunes of the Namib Desert to the flood-prone woodlands of the Caprivi Strip. The Atlantic coast brings cold fog rolling inland each morning, and the silence in the interior is almost physical. Daily life moves at the pace of a vast, sparsely populated land.

About Namibia

Overview

Located in southern Africa, Namibia borders South Africa, Botswana, Zambia, Angola, and the South Atlantic Ocean. Windhoek is the capital and main urban centre. English is the official language, though Afrikaans and Oshiwambo are widely spoken. The currency is the Namibian dollar, pegged to the South African rand. The country has a stable government and a cultural identity shaped by Indigenous Bantu and Khoisan peoples alongside a German colonial legacy visible in architecture and food.
