Uukwaluudhi (original) (raw)
Uukwaluudhi is a traditional kingdom of the Ovambo people in what is today northern Namibia. Its capital is Tsandi, a settlement located about 30 km south of Outapi, and the location of the Uukwaluudhi Royal Homestead. The homestead is situated about 2 km past Tsandi towards the town of Okahao. Half of it is of modern structure where the Kwaluudhi king and queen reside, while the other half is left in traditional Owambo style. The King now lives in a modern house, but the old residence complex has been kept to keep the homestead live, learn more about people's culture, traditions and history. When a homestead with modern brick-buildings was constructed next to the traditional homestead in 1978, the king and his family moved over, to allow visitors access the former royal home.
