Welcome to Boikanyo – Representing the Beauty of Modern Living

Dr Boikanyo Trust Phenyo, Director of Botswana Community UK, recommends a visit to Botswana and gives you 5 good reasons why you should:

I invite you to visit one of the jewels of Africa, my beautiful home country Botswana – sparsely populated but the size of Texas with the population of Wales.

1. If you want to meet the origins of humankind, the spirit of your ancestors, then visit Makgadikgadi Salt Pan in the north-eastern part of Botswana . Recently BBC news published this article titled “Origin of modern humans traced to Botswana”
2. Botswana is the world’s largest producer of diamonds, the trade for which has transformed it into a middle-income nation.
3. Botswana protects some of Africa’s largest areas of wilderness – experience its safari diversity. For example the Okavango Delta is one of the last remaining unspoiled wilderness areas of Africa. Don’t leave without experiencing the ancient San paintings at Tsodilo Hills!
4. Botswana is one of the safest countries in Africa – we have an excellent human rights record and the levels of poverty are the lowest in the continent. Come and appreciate the peace and tranquility we have to offer
5. Botswana is the perfect destination for bird watching – we have over 600 different bird species!
