Stay in the home of a local Indian family near Durban and enjoy the warm hospitality you are certain to receive.
Indian South Africans are citizens and residents of South Africa of Indian descent. The majority live in and around the city of Durban, making it "the largest 'Indian' city outside India". The modern South African Indian community is largely descended from Indians who arrived in South Africa from 1860 onwards as indentured labourers to work on the sugarcane plantations of Natal Colony.
English is the first language of most Indian South Africans. A minority, especially older people, still speak some Indian languages such as Hindi, Gujarati, Marathi, Odia, Tamil, Telugu, Urdu and others as a first language or second language. Most younger people do not speak any other languages, besides English. Almost all South African Indians are either Hindu, Muslim, or Christian, with some small groups of Parsis, Sikhs, and Buddhists.
The Indians have introduced a different line of culinary practices, including a variety of curries, sweets, chutneys, fried snacks such as samosa, and other savoury foods. Bunny chow, consisting of a hollowed-out loaf of bread filled with curry, has adapted into mainstream South African cuisine and has become quite popular.
