About Bhisho

Bhisho, capital of the Eastern Cape, is basically joined at the hip with Qonce and Zwelitsha, just off the N6 which links it to East London in under an hour, making it an easy day trip or work commute for locals. Long hauls from spots like Ladybrand or Port Edward usually mean government business rather than a joyride. Bisho Airport is 23 km out for those skipping the East London route. Don't miss the Bisho Stadium, still marked by the 1992 massacre history.
