Matobo Hills
The granite formations in Matobo National Park contain rock art
and Bushmen artefacts that date back thousands of years. Surrounded
by huge rock formations and delicately balanced boulders, this
UNESCO World Heritage Site is a scenic place to see game like white
and black rhinos, leopards, zebras, monkeys and much more. One of
the strangest, but most fascinating attractions in Matobo Hills is
the lizard feedings that take place three times daily at World's
View, which is also where Cecil John Rhodes is buried.
