SWAKOPMUND, NAMIBIA: Africa's MOST BEAUTIFUL Town? Travel Guide to ALL SIGHTS


Welcome to Namibia! And welcome to part 3 of an incredible road trip through one of the least populated countries in the world.

  1. This town is not owned my Namibians but the Germans. This town is known for the m@ssacre the Germans did to the indigenous during the occupation in early 1900 . They had a concentration camp in which they killed thousands of namibians. Today citizens are doing all they can to get this town back .

  2. What a beautiful place!!! Namibia has a lot of positive things. It's clean, beautiful, peaceful, friendly, and many more. I'm from Paraguay and I can't wait to move there. Great Job!!! 💯

  3. The areas of German South West Africa (now Namibia) were formally colonized by Germany between 1884–90. The semiarid territory was more than twice as large as Germany, yet it had only a fraction of the population—approximately 250,000 people.

  4. German

    Early in the 20th Century Namibia was a German Colony. After the 1st World War it became a League of Nations administered territory. Following the 2nd World War, South Africa administered Namibia, until independence in 1990.

  5. The production quality of your videos continues to be amazing. The emphasis on nature is balanced with cultural history. Great ! You must work so hard to make these. I see Namibia in a different way now. Wonderful .

  6. 👍Swakopmund has about 20,000 German descendants living there including Germans emigrating from Europe. However, both Dutch and German descendants live in Swakopmund but Walvis Bay is predominantly Dutch descendants coz Walvis Bay was a Dutch enclave in 1700 before the British South Africa bought the enclave from them as a result of which Walvis Bay was annexed as part of Western Cape. Population size of Germans is estimated at 40,000 in 2022 whole Namibia. Dutch descendants(afrikaans) are about 250,000 in 2022.
