Beitbridge, Zimbabwe

Beitbridge is a town in southern Zimbabwe, on the border with South Africa. Beitbridge is in the province of Matabeleland, on the north bank of the Limpopo River, which forms the natural border between the two countries.

Beitbridge today has a population of around 22,000 people (2012 estimate). Being a border town, it is where two main roads meet. The A4 highway connects Beitbridge with Harare 585 km to the northeast while the A5 highway connects it with Bulawayo 321 km to the northwest.

There isn't much in terms of tourist sights in Beitbridge, if you don't count local infrastructure such as bridges, the most important of which is the Alfred Beit Bridge, built in 1929 and named after the founded of the De Beers diamond mining company.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
