Christuskirche

Reviewed By marabujor6 - Cluj-Napoca, Romania

Lovely church, with a lovely architecture, both outside and inside. It's open during the week until 6 PM, during the weekend I found it closed. There was no one inside when I went, so i had a quiet time taking a few photos and absorbing it's simple beauty.

Namibia Craft Centre

Approximately 38 craft stalls from rural communities, ethnic groups and projects sell Namibian handicraft here, which range from jewellery to carved tree roots. We have the freshest Namibian food and best cheesecake and apple crumble in town! Our Craft Cafe is known all over the world for its stylish and excellent food. We support Namibian micro and small enterprises, and contribute to increase income through the sale of Namibian craft. Over 4,000 producers and their families derive an income from sales of their craft. We support Namibian design and product development, which is reflected in our large range of unique and quality products. We encourage the use of environmentally friendly products and sustainable utilization of Namibian natural resources. Vendors inside the Namibia Craft Centre may stock up to 5% of non-Namibian, but African handi-craft. No goods from outside the continent may be sold inside the Craft Centre. Some handi-craft and materials are hard to come by in Namibia, which is why we have made this concession. Staff should be able to tell you exactly the origin of most goods.

This was a perfect last night stop before the end of my amazing trip around Namibia and Botswana. Very convenient location, only 30 minutes drive to the international airport. The chalets are very comfortable, the food is fresh and delicious and the staff extremely helpful and polite. I spot a couple of animals, such as ostriches, wildebeest, giraffes, and baboons and I love seeing how they are safe in this beautiful area just outside the city. OVERAL: I had a great experience and I even recommend it on my blog Paula Pins the Planet.
