Lesedi Cultural Village
Lesedi is a multicultural village
set amongst the pristine bushveld and rocky hills less than an hour’s
drive north of Johannesburg. Situated at Lesedi are four traditional
homesteads – The Zulus with their fighting sticks and cozy beehive
huts, The Xhosa with their perfectly thatched rondawels and distinctive
white blankets, the rhythmic drums and whistles of The Pedi tribe
and the conical straw hats and thick, colored blankets of The Basotho.
Families peacefully living their traditional lives inhabit each homestead
at Lesedi. The area around the Hartebeespoort Dam is a favorite locality
for artists, and paintings, sculptures, handmade dolls, furniture
and a wide variety of original clothing may be purchased.
