Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 сер 2024
- Masvingo was the first urban settlement to be established by the settlers, making it Zimbabwe's oldest. It is the provincial capital of Masvingo province, and it has a population of 100 000.
It was formerly called Fort Victoria after the queen of England at the time, it was renamed Masvingo in 1982. Masvingo was declared a town on 1926 and gained city status in 2002. Masvingo is located 27km from the Great Zimbabwe, from which the name Masvingo was derived. Masvingo means "stone ruins" or a fortress of stone structures.
Let's take a tour of this beautiful city.

Masvingo, my mother’s hometown. Still has the charm with some of those mid century buildings. I like how clean it is, roads not too shabby either.
Tongosvora hedu guys but zvimwe nde zvimwe nyika yedu yakanaka, i wish we all could go to other african countries to appreciate what we have, we need some TLC though. Other thing i want to see the agriculture sector of this province coz of the 2 new lakes they have hmmmm the future looks sweet
You're right.. Pendi chete nemaroads , tinenge taabho. The future is bright
I think generally people do agree that Zim is beautiful but the management of the country is what makes people negative sometimes. It can be hard to separate the two when people are living in poverty. I have friends from other parts of Africa and they ask about migrating to Zim and I can see why because some countries are in bad shape with dust, dirt and crowds of people everywhere.
@@rachaelrae4532 It's refreshing to hear that some people would consider immigrating to Zim when the trend is emigration from Zim..shows at times we don't realise and value what we have..True, we need better leadership and management. Zvichaita chete.
A lot needs to be done ,,all the infrastructure ar very outdated
Beautiful historical town with Great Zimbabwe just a few kms away and the Kyle Dam too. Well worth a visit.
Wow Masvingo has huge potential to beat Harare if panned well and modernised with new long buildings, i like the roads are wide enough no pressure plus fresh air in the city. Thanks Mr Mazai
Very tru. Masvingo vanoizama havo. There is focus n unity there
I'm from Kenya and my boyfriend is from Masvingo, I'm happy I'm visiting soon. Hope the immigration will be nice to me.
wow... you will love Masvingo, and immigration will give you royal treatment!
Masvingo is clean and cool . With some future developments in Infrastructure and technology I can see Zim getting to the Top in no time. Right minds and characters will be essential to the developments. Thanks Harmony showing us what is for us to imagine and plan what can be.
I cant agree more🔥🔥🔥
Nice.city.masvingo

Love the WALKING videos 💕 much love from USA
Wow since I was last there it is looking very much kept and clean. Hope this vision is spread across Zim. Can't wait to visit again
It brings back so many memories✌✌
Buildings really needs to be upgraded
It's such an extensive city. Very open and roomy...It has shocked me! Thought it was one of those small towns. It has a character of a massive city (wide roads/streets/avenues)
Thank you so much Harmony and please carry on with your wonderful work. If you get the chance to visit Masvingo again please take us from Masvingo centre to the new Great Zimbabwe University sites on the Northside (adjacent to the impressive new Zimre Surburb) and the other en route to Great Zimbabwe Monuments and Mutirikwi Lakeside Those campuses are very modern architecturally...very impressive. I believe this will really showcase Masvingo City in its truest glory! Thank you once more
Great idea, will certainly do!
Thank you for sharing this video. From the level of traffic and activity, it would appear that the economy has greatly improved when compared to two years ago. Here's wishing the good hard working people of Zimbabwe a peaceful, prosperous future, free of corruption and crime. Thanks again for sharing.
Left that city 2009 now looks more developed keep it up
Nice wide streets. Africans have to own the means of producing, distributing, selling and storage. I see foreigners names in store fronts.
The city very clean ..keep it up
Thank you ndave ndisingatokuzive kut kwakaita sei wena you're doing great murambe muchitiratidza dzimwe nzvimbo

Wow! so clean, roads still intact well done 👏👏👏

Oh man thank you for taking us on tour of Masvingo I was born and bred in this city really evoked some nostalgia for sure keep up the good work and God bless
So happy to see Masvingo. One of the popular places in Zimbabwe. Never bn there but always wanted to visit it coz of the never ending buzz that includes development n places of interest to visit. Love the way they speak too. Thanx Mr Zim 🇿🇼 fo taking us this far seeing Masvingo
😂😂😂how do i speak? You should plan a trip to Masvingo, lots of attractions, Great Zimbabwe is 20 mins away, and Lake Mutirikwi, has a lot of selfcatering lodges
@@MrZim263 kkkkkkk i love the accent but I barely hear it fr u coz of English. I think u will feel offended if u hv to speak chi Masvingo coz I will be laughing like crazy 😅😅 Harmony uri wo vanhu ve Masvingo 😅😅 todii newe🤷♀️.

@@mhopi9744 😂😂😂😂😂Learning outcomes of ZIMSEC
@@MrZim263 kkkkkkkkkkk i chokwadi 😅😅 haa takapona hedu
Wow lovely
Masvingo City Indeed.The first printing press . The first school for the visually impaired . The first cricket match .The Shona bible was also born there...It also has a strong Afrikaner influence due to the Dutch Reformed Church.
Love your content brother . Keep up the good work 💪
Hekani vobgwo… vene vesvingo
Ngazvivongwe Mr Zim
What I can see here is that Zimbabweans care for their environment and know that it's the only one they have and must be taken care of. Down here in South Africa the majority care for nothing. They eat at an outdoor table and once finished all their garbage goes on the floor although a refuse bin is right there.
Harmony, u dnt hv to wear musk when u outside ND not close to anyone. X for taking us here very nice town clean.
Covid requirements at the time demanded wearing masks at all times after leaving the house. Even today you get fined if the police catch you town with your mask down
Thank you Harmony
Thanks Bro for taking us to Masvingo nice , your videos are captivating
👍Thank you Harmony. ☺Masvingo hasn't changed over the years and buildings badly in need of freshening up with a coat of paint. Still, was heart wrenching - hello all in Masvingo - doesn't look as though they've had any rain for a while. God keep you all. 👋
Thats My home!!!!
Very beautiful city.
Thank you Traveltainment👏🏿, welcome to the channel
home....awesome job cuz
I love the fantastic historical facts that you deliver with your content 😀! Really AWESOME 👏👏👏!!! Your music selection is also very inviting.
Very rich n fascinating too
@@mhopi9744 you can say that again 😀.
Kkkkkkk in sch i learned Russian revolution n European history😅. African heritage not that much but little emphasis was on Lobengula kkkkkk. So happy to finally know much about these places n hw they came about
@@mhopi9744 Me too hey 😀! I remember learning about the likes of Hitler and Mussolini. We did cover a bit about Egypt and Kush. I loved history back then and still do. However all the historical facts based on the locations we are seeing on this channel are new to me. I totally share your sentiments 😄
@@faithdodger 😅😅 amazing. After O Level was happy to stop cracking my head with dates. Not a fifth grader at all 😅😅 I miss days at sch not much of the learning esp history dates kkkkkkkk 🙆♀️

Zimbabwe is Great Nation in Africa
Am kenyan,Hope to visit Zimbabwe in near future, too much similarity with kenya, Dutch reformed church was in kenya too, Eldoret town, Fredrick de klerk grandfather was a preacher there.
Oh yes, you should visit. Will be happy to take you around.
I have subscribed too.
@@georgebenson2133 asante!
✊😀What some beautiful looking infrastructure. Keep up the good work mate👏
Thanks boet
My home town❤ Thank you Mr Zim, you're doing a great job here. You've gained a new subbie🤝
Thanks and welcome
This is more of a town than a City in infrastructure terms and development
The city Council officials should all go to Harare for a couple of months, tell the guys there to step aside and organise and clean that national embarrassing place up.
Very few developments after independence, most of the buildings are from colonial era, it's like we don't see any need to invest in ourselves expecting others to come and do it on our behalf!
Chero ukaenda SA you will see colonial buildings through out, apart from Joburg particularly Sandton area
Masvingo my home town
They should renovate buildings
Masvingo should be the biggest province in zimbabwe ??
l just saw a five year old yet to be finished building, nothing is happening back home really.
Mmmmm Masvingo pakaipa😂
Kkkkkkkk its lit 🔥 🔥
Zimbabwe only got 1 city which is Harare ,the rest are towns.
Agreed
How come Masvingo is clean than Harare.
Because Harare is more overcrowded than Masvingo
Bcz ine vanhu vane future
It is because of local government services in Harare
Masvingo ndokumba
You left the trade center building
Why don't you cover Matabeleland?
I will cover every square inch of Zimbabwe. Thank for supporting the channel
MaSvingo means walls....not stone monuments as you put it
in the context of Masvingo City it relates to Great Zimbabwe monuments
What I've realized with zims urban centre's is the roads are wider if we had good administrators from the central govt to local these cities would be great but no all the money goes to Harare and I hate that
but it has since changed, all money goes there coz thats where the Banks at. with devolution things should improve
Devolution is addressing that. Other provinces are now getting a chunk of money to develop their regions.
@@tari2073 Hey gf been long how are you doing my boo? Keep safe in this pandemic hope to see you one-day when I retire
@@kulhemhlongo Hey, how have you been? Keep safe too! See you in retirement in Zim🤩
I don't understand what you want to hear vand talk about.
Guys why is Harare so dirty out of all cities in Zim
Shem Zimbabwe shem
What's wrong?
Why
for having such outdated cities maybe thats why he says sorry
