This site marks the tragic end of one of Southern Africa's greatest political leaders and freedom fighters who struggled for liberation, peace, harmony and development in the region. This site is a symbol of the struggle and part of the negleted Southern African history. The place would not only pay homage to Samora Machel but also be a symbol of the crucial moral and material support given to the South African liberation struggle, of at great cost to themselves, by states in the region and indeed the whole continent of Africa.
