Visit Vilakazi Street, Soweto, South Africa
Vilakazi Street in Soweto is the only street in the world where two Nobel Laureates once lived. It is where Nelson Mandela and Desmond Tutu once lived and it was named on honour of Vilakazi.
Tutu and his wife, Leah, still live there. Mandela's house is now a National Historical site and open to the public as a museum.
Before the arrival of democracy in South Africa, Vilakazi Street looked like any other dusty street full of matchbox houses in Soweto, near Johannesburg. Vilakazi Street is no longer dusty. The gravel has been replaced by pavement and brick sidewalks and the new neighbors include restaurants, bars and local craft sellers.
