Parliament of Botswana

Botswana's national parliament complex in central Gaborone, close to the government enclave.

The Parliament of Botswana is part of Gaborone's central government district, a useful stop for travellers trying to read the capital as more than malls and suburbs. The buildings are restrained rather than showy, but they mark the civic heart of one of Africa's most stable democracies.

Do not expect a casual tourist attraction with exhibits unless a visit or sitting is specifically available. The value is in seeing the government quarter alongside nearby landmarks such as the Three Dikgosi Monument and the National Museum.
