The city has wide, tree-lined streets and is surrounded by beautiful parks, a legacy of Cecil John Rhodes. The exceptionally wide streets were designed to allow a wagon and span of 16 oxen to do a U-turn in the road! They have been laid out on a neat grid pattern, making exploration of the city very easy – reminiscent of some cities in Australia and The United States.Another feature of the city streets that makes Bulawayo easily identifiable is the lovely lamp-posts There are also many examples of early Victorian buildings which are maintained as heritage sites. A lovely place to sit outside and watch Bulawayo go by is the pavement cafe on Fife Street called Haefeli’s – great coffee, great cakes and pastries and a relaxed cosmopolitan atmosphere!
Other places of interest include the country’s main museum, the natural history museum, a railway museum, the Bulawayo Art gallery (which is housed in a most attractive turn of the century building), theatres, the Mzilikazi Arts & Crafts Centre,good hotels and one of the finest caravan and camping parks in Zimbabawe. It is also home to the Chipangali Wildlife Orphanage.
Flights to this beautiful city are available in cheap air fares and with low cost airlines. Now the availability of cheap flights to Bulawayo,Zimbabwe with a carrier of international repute and recognition is far easier.
