Amazulu World In South Africa
This year’s Dubai’s Cityscape saw a major announcement being made on the first day of the exhibition, when Ruwaad, a Dubai based real estate developer announced the development of Amazulu World, the largest of its kind multi-billion-dollar themed entertainment development in South Africa.
Covering approximately 16,500 hectares of land, Amazulu World will consist of an eco-friendly first class internationally branded theme park, with Africa’s largest shopping destination, Africa’s largest lifestyle community, the country’s first dedicated education and health village, the most comprehensive and advanced sports village development in Africa, residential dwellings, hotels, spas, a marina, nature reserves and community facilities.
With ongoing development and new infrastructure being built in South Africa, due to the 2010 Soccer World Cup, it seemed to be the natural choice for this development.
The all year round climate makes it easy to enjoy what the region has to offer and the splendid natural beauty of South Africa draws more and more international investors and developers into its fold.
Telecommunication and tourism interest from outside sources have also been boosted in recent times giving even more reasons to believe that South Africa is indeed an up and coming international destination.
Amazulu World is proposed to be built north of the Thukela River and close to Durban’s main arterial roads, allowing easy access to and from the city as well as the new King Shaka International Airport.
Estimations have thought to bring at least 200,000 new jobs to the development which will help improve the South African economy. Tourism will also be boosted by some 40% bringing millions of tourists into the area once the development is built.
The projected length of the construction is said to last 25 years.
Amazulu World is the combined dream of connecting heaven and earth by creating a magical place on earth that allows humans to live in a community that comes close to heaven. It will be the jewel of Africa once built and become the choice destination for people from around the world.

November 3rd, 2008 at 3:50 pmI believe that this development will be fantastic for the North Coast and South Africa on the whole. The long term benefits can only be guessed at this time but the permanent employment that this will bring will surely inject much needed resources into this area too. While this is a 25 year project I believe the entertainment theme park will be built first, I just wonder how long that may take?

January 12th, 2009 at 5:56 amI first read about the proposed development of the Amazulu World Theme Park in eMacambini in a local paper… In that article there was no mention of the eMacambini community that was going to be displaced, no mention of the 29 schools that would be demolished, the 300 churches, the three clinics, the brand new RDP houses. No mention of the ancestral graves that would be displaced. No mention of the absurdity of a beyond-vast Zulu theme park that would destroy everything that is Zulu about the area – which is to say everything….
