National Gallery of Zimbabwe
National Gallery of Zimbabwe (20 Julius Nyerere Way, City Centre, Harare) – this is not just any art gallery. The National gallery showcases traditional Shona stone sculptures, along with paintings by local artists. Vibrant, honest and thought-provoking, visiting this gallery is a great way to learn about Zimbabwean culture.
Parliament (Harare) — The Parliament was originally built as a hotel in 1895, but was soon commandeered for army barracks. It has undergone several renovations since and is now used by the senate and legislative assembly. It’s not normally open to the public, but requests to sit in the gallery during the fiery political debates can be arranged by ringing the Chief Information Officer. You may also be lucky enough to join a free weekly tour.
