Okahandja is a city located about 70 kilometers north from Windhoek. The town was founded in the 19th century by two local peoples the Nama and the Herero. The ton is the burial place for prominent members of these communities, and thus important in their history. The Otjozondjupa region of Namibia has many natural treasures including the Waterberg Plateau Park. The Waterberg National Park has an interesting landscape, and coupled with its relative inaccessibility, has many rare animals.

Okahandja has good facilities, and you won’t be left without any necessities. The town has an open air curio market which attracts many visitors. The markets sell the kind of curio you’d expect from an African country, with a few surprises thrown in. Evidence of colonialism is visible, but you’ll know that you’re in Namibia. Okahandja, like Windhoek is ideally situated, roughly in the middle of the country. Okahandja will make the ideal base for you from where you can explore the rest of the country.
