City/town information
Windhoek is capital city of Namibia with a population of around 500,000. The name Windhoek is derived from the Afrikaans meaning "windy corner". The San people first populated the area thousands of years ago.
The precise moment of the city's founding is unclear but by the 19th century, the local tribes known as the Namas & Herero referred to the area as "/Ai-//Gams" and "Otjomuise" respectively. Both names are references to the hot springs located in the area.
Windhoek is known for its cleanliness and German/South African influences from its colonial past. Due to its hilly surrounding the international airport “Hosea Kutako” is situated forty kilometres although a smaller airport (Eros Airpot) is located within the city
