, QUESTION 1.1 [20]
Read the case study titled “The Basotho Cultural Village” and answer the questions that
follow.
The Basotho cultural village, situated at the golden gate Highlands National Park in
Clarens offers a unique South African experience in which you can learn about
traditional Sotho arts and crafts and their way of life. It consists of a rest camp that
resembles an 18th-century Sotho village combined with replica homesteads dating from
the 16th century to the present day. These showcase good examples of the mural art of
the Sotho people, known as “litema”. The replica homesteads do more than document the
evolution of Sotho culture. Visitors are also invited to taste the local beer brewed on-site,
share local food, enjoy traditional dances, meet village elders and learn how local arts
and crafts are produced. Most of the objects produced in the village are for sale, along
with items sourced from further afield in Free State province. Traditional Sotho villages
abound with crafters who work from home. They produce pottery, fabrics, beadwork and
grass hats, mats and baskets using traditional techniques and local materials. You can
arrange to visit some of these crafters, or simply buy their products at the Basotho
Cultural Village. You will also find iconic, conical Sotho hats, called “mokorotlo”, on sale
at the village. They are used to keep the sun at bay, as well as for cultural festivals. Also,
look out for traditional Sotho blankets. Their designs and colours are significant, and
blankets are worn in different ways for different ritual purposes.

Discuss 10 indirect effects of cultural tourism with reference to the case study
above.
Important: Marks will not be awarded for naming the indirect effect, only application to
the case study will earn you marks.
Answer:
Input output effects: The project requires intermediate inputs such as energy,
transportation, food, and maintenance. These deliveries must be imported in part from
outside the region, but can be met to some extent by the local economy. Deliveries of
goods and services from the local community to the project are examples of input-
output effects (Ringstad, 2005; Bowitz & Ibenholt, 2009). In the case of the Basotho
Cultural Village, various inputs are required, such as food, local beer ingredients,
maintenance materials, and so on. Some of these inputs can be sourced locally,
