The old gold mining town Barberton, in Mpumalanga, South Africa, has lots of picturesque colonial buildings. It is worth a stop for a few days, when/if you are in the area. It is nicer and more fun than nearby Neilspruit.

Behind the mountains in the background lies beautiful Swaziland, which you can read about here: http://www.earthseeing.com/swaziland-night-listen-sound-animals/

Top Makhonjwa Mountains Hotel Reviews

Sibebe Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We loved it at Sibebe resort. Very nice for vacation especially for the kids."

Grand Kruger Lodge and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Here’s a polished version that keeps your tone but reads more smoothly and professionally: Revised version: The Grand Kruger Lodge delivered a wonderful experience from the moment I arrived, thanks largely to its exceptional staff who truly understand how to take care of their guests. The lodge is intimate and cosy yet still offers plenty of privacy with excellent outdoor amenity spaces. The owner is warm and welcoming, adding a personal touch to the stay. I will certainly be returning in the future."
