Harare is house of sparkling attractions

Zimbabwe's capital city of Harare has something for everyone .you just have to know where to look. The city centre does have its tourist attractions, but many of the must-see sights are in the suburbs or on the outskirts of Harare. A car is the best way to get around, and now that petrol is widely available in garages this is much easier than it was a few years ago. Harare has a lot of gorgeous attractions to visit.
Domboshawa

Literally translated as 'The Red Rock', this granite hill on the outskirts of Harare is a great place to go for sundowners. It's an easy as 15-minute walk to the top and not too strenuous that you can't take a picnic basket with you.

If you'd prefer to make an afternoon of it, follow the hand painted arrows on the rocks to get to the rock paintings and caves, and then meander slowly to the top and take in the view. Although it's not too steep, the rock can be slippery so walking shoes are a must.

For the more adventurous, go up Ngomakurira (The Mountain of Drums), which is Domboshawa's big brother, a little further out of town. This takes about an hour to walk up, depending on which route you take, and is much more scenic. There's a small lake at the top and a mini-forest growing out of the rock. Both have a small entry fee which is payable on arrival at the site. Visitors like this place and pay visit to Harare by taking their cheap flights to Harare.
