Celebrate rich cultural diversity in Eastern Zambezi.
The Heritage Centre, built out of reeds and grasses from the area, encircles the baobab that was once used to spot poachers attempting to cross the Kwando River.

Swords have been transformed into plough shears and music and laughter now float up into the ancient tree.
