Overview
Why visit Ulundi
Few destinations in South Africa match the thriving energy of Ulundi. Ulundi, also known as Mahlabathini, is a town which lies under the Ulundi Local Municipality in the Zululand District Municipality. At one time the capital of the Zulu Kingdom in South Africa and later the capital of the Bantustan of KwaZulu, Ulundi now lies in KwaZulu-Natal Province (of which, from 1994 to 2004, it alternated with Pietermaritzburg as the provincial capital). A blend of historical significance and forward-thinking development makes this city a compelling stop on any travel itinerary.
