An ancient beauty 

Our colleagues in Namibia commemorated their Independence Day on 21 March, celebrating their rugged country’s unique people and beauty.

Following a 30-year struggle against occupation by Apartheid South Africa, which had administered the territory after World War I, Namibia officially achieved independence in 1990. 

Today the country is a popular tourist destination known for its stark beauty and unique attractions.
