Bulembu museum

Reviewed By Foodbuzzz

At the simplest level it is the story of a town that picked it self up from collapse. Are the local community and some dedicated activists turned a ghost town into a thriving community. But the Bulembu museum is also a fascinating history of the mining community, local geology and Swaziland itself.
