At the heart of the philosophy of Ubuntu is the idea of a community where everyone has a place, where the individual is taken care of and the individual takes care of the community.

Why do we preserve the ruins of the eternal city?
Perhaps wandering through the decaying buildings is a training in humility rather than a search for the next tourist must-have. How long will they try to maintain the old walls, I wonder?
