If you want to see the penetration of Zulu culture in the city go to the Muti Bridge at Victoria Street Market. I did it with a friend who is familiar with the traders and the stuff being traded. He offered me background to the market, the bridge and the merchandise. It was extremely educational. The number of sangomas and herbalists in the market is astounding so were the various things for sale. Approach with curiosity and an open mind. There’s always something to learn and this is even more true in the market.

If you want to see the penetration of Zulu culture in Durban go to the Muti Bridge at Victoria Street Market. I did it with a friend who is familiar with the traders and the articles being traded. He offered me background to the market, the bridge and the merchandise. It was extremely educational. The number of Sangomas (traditional healer)s and herbalists in the market is astounding so were the various items for sale. Approach with curiosity and with an open mind. There’s always something to learn and this is even more true in the market.
