WHERE THE DESERT MEETS THE CITY
Windhoek sits at nearly 1,700 meters above sea level, in a highland basin ringed by the Khomas Hochland mountains, with the Namib and Kalahari deserts stretching out on either side. The city carries a striking mix of German colonial architecture – pastel buildings, a hilltop castle, a Lutheran church modeled on European cathedrals – layered over Herero, Owambo, Damara, and Nama heritage that predates it by centuries.
