DURBAN NORTH EXPERIENCE
lnanda Heritage Trail
The lnanda Heritage Trail allows a visit to some of Durban’s most important historical sites, places where South Africa’s future changed for the better because of the bravery of a few individuals. The Phoenix Settlement is where Mahatma Gandhi developed his philosophy of passive resistance, which has been lauded the world over, and his home has been turned into a monument dedicated to lasting peace and justice. At lnanda Township one can visit the Ohlange Institute, founded by the first president of the African National Congress, Rev. John Dube; this is also the site where Nelson Mandela cast his historic vote in South Africa’s first democratic elections in 1994. The lnanda Seminary is one of the oldest and most famous schools for girls in South Africa and has a legacy of producing some of the country’s finest black women leaders. Visits to those historic sites can be arranged through specialist tour operators.
