Moses Mabhida Stadium
The Moses Mabhida Stadium was built for the 2010 FIFA World Cup
and is one of South Africa's most picturesque stadiums. With its
iconic 'arch of triumph', the waves of the Indian Ocean crashing in
the background, and an amazing view of Durban's Beachfront, the
stadium offers a few attractions of its own. Adventurous visitors
will be able to enjoy the rush of the Big Swing, the world's only
stadium swing and the largest of any kind, facilitating a jump from
the stadium's arch 348 feet (106 m) above the pitch where people
will swing out over the pitch and 80,000 seats below. The Sky Car
is perhaps the stadium's most notable attraction which ferries up
to 20 people to the stadium arch's highest point, from where they
can enjoy incredible panoramic views of the city, while the Skywalk
takes visitors up 550 steps of the arch and back down again. Tours
of the stadium are also available.

are widely accepted, except in petrol stations where cash is
required. Visitors should be vigilant when drawing cash from ATMs,
as con artists are known to operate there. Travellers cheques and
