About Lobamba
Lobamba, the seat of Swaziland's monarchy and parliament, is southeast of the capital city Mbabane. It's known for the Umhlanga and Incwala festivals, Swazi celebrations with elaborate dance performances. These festivals take place at Ludzidzini, a royal compound that includes the Queen Mother's residence. The King Sobhuza II Memorial Park features a statue of this 20th-century leader, as well as his mausoleum.
