Culture and Religion, Zimbabwe

Displayed:   times.

Zimbabwe is a multi-racial society where people of all nationalities live in harmony. The majority of this widely spread and friendly populations, more specifically in urban areas, have a Westernised lifestyle. In country areas, however, there are many African traditions that have been preserved, with the people remaining friendly and accustomed to the presence of visitors. Despite Zimbabwe's vibrant cities, the countryside retains a deep hold on the nation's consciousness. Only one in four lives in the city, and very few of these forget their rural roots. Despite the close relationship between town and country, a new generation of purely urban Zimbabweans is now emerging, their lives plugged into the rest of the international press. But out in the countryside, it is still possible to find thousands of villages, which are little more than a cluster of grass-roofed huts, symbols of a close-knit community life.
