The Centenary Centre, opened in 1995, commemorates a hundred years of conservation in the Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park, and celebrates especially the inspiring success story of how the Natal Parks Board saved the southern white rhinoceros from the brink of extinction in the early twentieth century. Whenever we visit the Park, we’re sure to set aside an hour or two to appreciate the educational displays, have a snack from the little kiosk and stroll through the curio stalls where crafters from the surrounding community trade their arts.
