World renowned and yet not known by so many South Africans. Ignorant on their part? I would venture to say 'yes'.

Many fear it and millions live in it.

The bad history and riotist past has been sensationalised and the good people and community and ongoing development is underplayed.

A place filled with culture, history, intrigue, sorrow, blood and tears, love and care.

A fundamental part of the heritage of South Africa!

 Seeing the huge tourist busses outside Soweto's main attractions always makes me cringe. Besides there's so much more to Soweto than what the tourist busses show. I frequently travel into Soweto...
