Situated in Botswana’s Central District, next to the mighty Lotsane River, the town of Serowe is the leading trade and commerce centre of the region. It is Botswana’s largest village and serves as the capital of the Bamangwato tribe. Serowe is the birthplace of the country’s founding father and first president, Sir Seretse Khama. The town offers all the amenities needed and serves as a convenient stopover for travellers looking to stock up before venturing north to the Makgadikgadi Pans National Park or the Central Kalahari. Visitors can look forward to exploring the town’s history at the fascinating Khama III Memorial Museum, the official Khama graves, and the London Missionary Society church, which, with its impressive tall steeple, has become a prominent landmark of the town.
