LESOTHO CULTURAL VILLAGE TO OPEN IN JULY

Construction of the new Thaba Bosiu Cultural Village, located close to the historic Thaba Bosiu mountain in Maseru, Lesotho, is expected to be completed by July.

It will comprise chalets, a restaurant and bar, curio shop, botanical garden, museum, conference venue, amphitheatre and a cultural village showing ancient Basotho life.  It will showcase Basotho traditional food, clothes and various dances and songs with a statue of Moshoeshoe I, founder and king of the Basotho natoin nearby.

The cultural village was expected to be completed by March but heavy rains delayed the construction.
