Harare is Zimbabwe’s capital and one of the most cosmopolitan national capital cities in the African continent. This city has risen above its turbulent past to emerge as the country’s leading financial and commercial centre that charms its visitors through an open bracket of cultural, historical and architectural offerings. Harare is home to an array of historical monuments alongside some modern skyscrapers, and also to some museums, art galleries, nature reserves and resorts. An impossible to miss attraction here is a collection of stone sculptures at Chapungu Kraal and Sculpture Park and an jaw-dropping assembly of naturally balancing rocks at Epworth Balancing Rocks.
