Given the rich cultural heritage and history of the Ulundi municipal area, tourism provides a significant opportunity for economic development of the area. It is this cultural heritage which sets the Ulundi Municipality apart from the other local authorities within the Zululand District Municipality. What is important, however, is that any development to encourage tourism should be undertaken in a manner that is sustainable and conforms to environmental management imperatives. The Ulundi Tourism and Marketing Strategy was developed and approved by Council in 2008; however, the imperatives of this Strategy could not be implemented as a consequence of human and financial capacity constraints. A Tourism Officer was appointed by the Municipality in 2009 to provide impetus and direction to this initiative. A cornerstone of the Tourism and Marketing Strategy is the development of a Tourism Information Centre in Ulundi. The site on which the Tourism Information Centre is to be constructed has been identified and made available by the Council of the Municipality; the Zululand District Municipality, responsible for the development and operation of the Tourism Information Centre has prepared and submitted business plans to secure the funding required for this development. Amanga AkwaZulu is the parastatal mandated by the KwaZulu-Natal Provincial Government to administer all of the heritage sites within the Zululand District. Listed hereunder are some of the important heritage sites within the Ulundi Municipality: Ondini Museum This is the site of King Mpande‟s kraal and the place of his burial. The history of Ulundi revolves around this particular heritage site; King Mpande‟s grave draws tourists from all over the world. The Museum is situated in Ulundi and can easily be accessed. Among the attractions in the Museum is a display of symbolic Zulu art that reflects a summary of the history of the Zulu nation and a collection of cultural beadwork that features the colours of the various Zulu traditional families. 74
