Mpumalanga: History & Culture
Mpumalanga — meaning ‘the place where the sun rises’ in isiZulu — is South Africa’s most scenically dramatic province. It drops from the highveld escarpment into the subtropical lowveld in a series of vertiginous passes and gorges that make the Panorama Route one of the world’s great scenic drives. Blyde River Canyon — the world’s third-largest canyon — is Mpumalanga’s centrepiece.

World's third-largest canyon — 800m cliffs and the iconic Three Rondavels viewpoint.
Africa's greatest wildlife reserve — 147 species of mammals over 19,485 km².
God's Window, Bourke's Luck Potholes — South Africa's most spectacular drive.
A preserved 19th-century gold rush town — a living museum of South African mining history.
