SA: Kruger National Park – Albasini Ruins

For the more historically minded traveller on a Kruger Park safari, entering at Phebeni Gate will be a good option, as a stone’s throw from the gate is the Albasini Ruins. The Albasini Ruins gives visitors the opportunity to have a look into the Park’s rich history. Albasini was a Portuguese trader in the area and the ruins are what are left of his 19th century trading post. Goods sold here varied from beads to clothes and even metal products. Although only a few crumbling walls remain there are small display rooms on site where you will be able to view the relics that were uncovered from the area.
