Post Street Mall & Gibeon Meteorites
Post Street Mall
A city-centre pedestrian street where 33 iron meteorites collected from the Gibeon meteorite shower are displayed in the middle, with stalls selling wood carvings and handicrafts lining the sides.
The Gibeon meteorite shower fell in southern Namibia in prehistoric times, and it is one of the largest iron meteorite strewn fields in the world. In the middle of the pedestrian street, on stainless-steel stands, dozens of meteorites of varying sizes are on display, and you can view and touch them up close. Shops, cafés and African craft stalls line both sides, where you can buy wood carvings, basketwork and beaded jewellery. Bargain over prices and keep an eye on your belongings.
