Legend has it that an ancient civilization from North Africa journeyed south to build a palace for their much-loved King. They stopped in a long-extinguished volcano crater – a veritable cradle of life. This was a place where weird and wonderful creatures, both great and small, roamed free amidst glittering streams and dreamy waterfalls. Here, they built a magnificent palace to befit the surroundings, and their King was well-pleased. And so, the palace served as a spiritual centre of their vast empire until an earthquake reduced it to ruins.

Now, restored in form and rejuvenated in spirit, The Palace of the Lost City in the North West Province is a modern day marvel that will make your journey to this region, legendary.
