خط السير

1. Pigeon Valley is a little 10 hectare nature reserve in the center of Durban is named for the Eastern Bronze-naped (Delegorgue's) Pigeon, which was originally gathered here and documented by Delegorgue in 1847. It is considered to be one of KwaZulu-Natal's top birdwatching locations. A small portion of the once-vast Stella bush, which formerly covered a significant portion of the Berea, is preserved in the reserve. The vegetation is typical of climax coastal lowland forest, with several spectacular tree species—especially the uncommon Natal Elm, for which the reserve was first established—representing the forest. Look for Spotted Ground Thrush, Buff-spotted Flufftail, Green Malkoha, Green Twinspot.

About Durban

Durban is South Africa's warm Indian Ocean port, a city of golden beaches, Zulu and Indian culture, curry and the hills of KwaZulu-Natal.

Durban sits on a natural bay on the Indian Ocean in KwaZulu-Natal, and its port is one of the busiest in Africa. The Golden Mile, a promenade backed by hotels and lined with sand, runs along the beachfront, and the Moses Mabhida Stadium, built for the 2010 World Cup, has a great arch that visitors can climb or ride up. The city has a subtropical climate with warm sea water all year.
