Lesotho, officially the Kingdom of Lesotho, is an enclaved country entirely surrounded by South Africa. It covers an area of approximately 30,355 square kilometers and is characterized by its high altitude, with most of the country lying above 1,800 meters. Known as the 'Kingdom in the Sky,' Lesotho boasts stunning mountainous landscapes, including the Drakensberg and Maloti mountain ranges. The capital city, Maseru, is located on the western border with South Africa and serves as the political, economic, and cultural hub. Lesotho has a temperate climate, with cold winters and warm summers, making it ideal for livestock farming and agriculture, particularly sheep and cattle. The economy is primarily based on agriculture, textiles, and remittances from Basotho working abroad. Tourism is also growing, with attractions such as the Sehlabathebe National Park, the Thabana Ntlenyana peak, and traditional Basotho culture drawing visitors.
