Shopping in Western Namibia

  1. Peter's Antiques

    This place is an Ali Baba's cave of treasures, specialising in colonial relics, historic literature, West African art, politically incorrect German paraphernalia and genuine West African fetishes and other artefacts from around the continent. It's a place that travellers love to hate, but many succumb to its wonders.
