The map
About this Ulundi map poster
Ulundi lies in northern KwaZulu-Natal, on open, rolling ground north of the White Umfolozi River. It was purpose-built in the 1970s as the capital of the KwaZulu homeland, and later shared the role of provincial capital until that settled on Pietermaritzburg. The map shows this history in wide roads, spacious government precincts and roomy residential areas.
The area is central to Zulu history. Nearby stood oNdini, the royal homestead of King Cetshwayo. On the plain outside the town, the Battle of Ulundi in July 1879 ended the Anglo-Zulu War. The reconstructed royal enclosure and the battlefield memorial remain important heritage sites for visitors and for the Zulu nation.
An Ulundi map poster brings together a modern planned town and a landscape of deep historical meaning. The broad streets and open spaces give the design a relaxed structure. The river and the grassland hills around the town frame it with quiet, flowing lines. It suits anyone with roots in the Zulu heartland.

Planned town layout
Built as an administrative capital, the town has wide roads, separate precincts and generous open land between them. This spacious pattern is unusual for a town of its size.
White Umfolozi valley
The river runs south of the town through open country. It adds a long natural curve to the lower part of the map.
