25 Must-Have Experiences in Windhoek, Namibia

Windhoek is the little Namibian city that could. Home to just 325 858 people eating beef and drinking beer in-between bragging about how great their beer and beef is, Windhoek is a bite-sized metropolis that will hasten you out of a taxi in the middle of the street, baffle you with its German architecture and charm you with its wonderful people before inviting you to a braai. Music live, glorious sun setting, heart just about stolen.
