cultural heritage and traditions

Namibia is regarded as one of the peaceful countries in the world, with a rich cultural heritage and traditions.
 
We are about 2.2 million people, which represent one of the lowest population densities on the African continent counting to 1.5 people per km^2. This fact is suprising because there are 11 main ethinic group in Namibia. One might think that with all those ethinic groups, we must be atlease +- 11 million people. Nevertheless, we are one united nation.
 
The Food delights offered in Namibia are as vibrant and varied as the history and culture of the Namibian people. Having said that, the local food that you might indulge in is based on which region you are in. Which means, if you are in the capital city, you should expect to eat mordern food only. That is not suprising either, because it is hard to get traditional food in the capital.
 
Of course you will  get your red meat and chicken in windhoek. It is amazing how Namibians love their meat and chicken. A meal with no meat in Namibia is not considered as a real meal.
 
Since it is so hard to get your traditional cooked meat and chicken and other types of food in Windhoek, Xwama Cultural Village is there to serve you. It is the only restaurant where you get your traditional food and feel at home (village or farm) again. That sounds appealing! Xwama restaurant believes that, culture is one of the aspect we should respect and we shoul't let it die despite where we are.

The count down has started

In the previous blog post, we mentioned that Xwama means ignite or set alight. As for now, Xwama is really igniting in Windhoek as the best known traditional restaurant. We have put up a very big bill board in Katutura showing where to find us and where to contact us if you want to get the foretaste of the Namibian traditional food.

                                                                                                     

We started counting down to the re-opening of the renovated restaurant recently. The new building is almost done and everything seems to work out as planned. Follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and on our website to catch up on the latest developments.

We have been talking enough about the delicacy of the traditional food and what the restaurant presents lately. As part of our customer-oriented approach, we are inviting you to share your views and suggestions on this blog about Xwama restaurant.  We believe that our guests and customers are our long life partners.
