Twyfelfontein is famous for its ancient rock paintings, and as Namibia’s first World Heritage Site, this area certainly lives up to its reputation. Here you will be able to view 2,000 rock paintings and carving, created over the course of two thousand years, long before 1000 AD. In addition to these paintings, a range of objects have been dug over from two parts of the site. These include items such as stone artefacts, pendants and beads – offering a fascinating glimpse into ancient man and cultures. Twfelfontein accommodation ranges from rustic to luxurious.
