Eshowe is the oldest town of European settlement in Zululand, historically also known as Eziqwaqweni, Ekowe or kwaMondi. Eshowe's name is said to be inspired by the sound of wind blowing through the more than 4 km2 of the indigenous Dlinza Forest, the most important and striking feature of the town. Although the name is most likely to be derived from the Zulu word for the Xysmalobium shrubs, showe or shongwe.
Reading Eshowe against the global hubs: Dubai (~6,530 km), São Paulo (~7,672 km), Singapore (~8,371 km) are the close ones, with Los Angeles (~17,097 km) sitting on the opposite side of the planet — a good gut check when judging logistics windows.
