Nelspruit

Nelspruit has recently renamed Mbombela by the national government, the new name meaning "Lots of people together in a small place"! The city is the capital of Mpumalanga province. Being only 60 miles from Mozambique it benefits from much cross-border trade and is otherwise based on agricultural and manufacturing industry.
