Cultural Experiences
in Umlazi, Durban Metro,

Hlola (Explore) Umlazi, the largest single township in South Africa, and the

the legendary Zulu warrior-king, Shaka. The story goes that when his army passed

like the taste, claiming it tasted like bad milk or Umlaza (a Zulu word for the
fatty layer that rises to the top of unhomogenised milk).
