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

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
