As Heritage Day celebrations continue in South Africa, we turn our focus to Vilakazi Street in Soweto, located in the Gauteng Province. This area offers a unique opportunity to experience South Africa’s history and the beauty of its culture in its most authentic form.

Vilakazi Street is the only street in the world where two Nobel Peace Prize laureates once lived. Today, Nelson Mandela’s house is a museum, while Archbishop Desmond Tutu still maintains his residence. Vilakazi Street has also become a hub of black entrepreneurship. Thami Ngubeni spoke with Channel Africa business reporter Innocent Semosa, who shared how traders are managing their businesses as Heritage Day celebrations get underway.`
