Bakone Malapa exhibits rich culture of Bapedi. The place teaches you about how people used to live and their security measures against wild animals. You'll learn more about the instruments that were used and for what purpose. It's a great place to sit and chill out as per our modern chill out culture in a great traditional setting. Perfect for a day out with family, friends or colleagues.

We visited on the 24/12/2019 and it was empty, which is so sad because the entrance fee is just R15. I thoroughly enjoyed this experience. Our tour guide was welcoming, informative and demonstrated some examples as well. our heritage and culture need to be preserved. so grateful for this place. Great place to visit with the whole family.
