Durban: As twilight falls, the magic begins

 During the Christmas season, from December 14 to 30, a magical Trail of Lights is created at the Durban Botanic Gardens, known to be the oldest surviving botanical garden in Africa.

 As night falls, families are invited to follow the lovely garden paths through the trees and landscape, which will be spectacularly lit. But there is another reason to attend this important event: the Durban Botanic Gardens Trust has included charities based in the KwaZulu-Natal province that will participate in the event and raise funds for their causes by organizing children's activities at the garden.
