Sight-seeing in Windhoek Namibia

By Geena Visagie
February 11, 2022

When visiting the capital of Namibia, it can be a bit overwhelming to find things to do. From wide open spaces to a few tall buildings and shopping malls. Here are a few things that you can see in Windhoek: 

 

Namibia Craft Centre 

With about 38 craft stalls that are all 100% Namibian. These stalls have a wide variety of crafts, from jewellery to art pieces. There is a Craft Cafe with delicious food and great cheesecake. They support Namibian micro and small enterprises, and contribute to increase income through the sale of Namibian craft.

National Museum of Namibia 

An interesting place to visit and get to know Namibia. Free entrance and a great view from the restaurant on the top floor. It is just across the road of the ChristusKirsche, which is absolutely beautiful to see.

Heroes' Acre 

An official war memorial of the Republic of Namibia, just outside of Windhoek. Worth a visit for an afternoon walk in Nature and viewing the impressive monument.

National Botanic Garden of Namibia 

Open from 8am to 5pm, with various indigenous plants in Namibia. A stunning place to experience right in the city and easy to access.

The Village 

Located in Liliencron Street, you’ll find a few beautiful spots to wander around. With great restaurants and regular events, this is a lovely spot to spend a Saturday.
