About
Swaziland has a rich history, and provides a myriad of activities to suit each individual preference. But there is so much more to explore! Shops such as Traditional Swazi Craft Markets will definitely appeal to all. There are two traditional Swazi craft markets close by - one at the Royal Swazi Sun's entrance, and another along the main road, next to the Ezulwini Sun.

There are definitely lots of stalls here selling things from wooden crafts to paintings to fabrics and baskets. If you are looking for souvenir, this will be the place. But if you can not so keen (like me), it can be pretty boring as the items are more or less the same and some of the locals can be quite pushy.

Be kind, respectful, and gracious if you must barter. Ask about the work and who makes it. If it is too high for you say thank you and you want to keep looking ... if they are willing to lower they will give you another price. If they do not offer lower price there are more stalls...

There are many stalls here so you'll need a bit of time to go around. Though many sell the same or similar items, there are still unique pieces that make it worth visiting around. Be sure to bargain.

When bringing groups through Mbabane, we always make sure to stop at Swazi craft market also known as The Mile. This is a bartering shopping experience so you never want to pay the first price given. One recommendation I give my groups is to never say “I’ll be back” or “I’ll think about it” unless you want to be approached again. Just say “no thank you” if not interested because the shop owners will come back around if you don’t end it. Don’t get me wrong, the shop workers are very nice and helpful. It’s just the game played at these bartering type places. There is always a nice variety and something for everyone in the group!

While most of the crafts were typical, there were some artists actually creating their works, which was nice to see. Pretty good variety.

I noticed a whole bunch of pants made from a light cotton fabric that looked identical to clothing I've bought in Asia. The stall holders insist that it's made in Swaziland but no one can give me a clear answer. Does this fabric come from Asia? -It's the typical soft cotto with asian elephants etc printed on it.

Had i have a photo of the item you are talking about,i can give you a correct answer.. Just to add on, MOST of the stuff sold at the Swazi market are proudly made by creative Swazis... yes we have other nationals like our Mozambican neighbors who also sell their wires there.
