Maun

Maun is an important village in Botswana, and major gateway to the Okavango Delta.

The 7th leg of the 22nd installment of the US television program The Amazing Race is focused on what happens to the race participants while in and around Maun.

The settlement was founded in 1915 as the tribal capital of the Batawana people, it has had a reputation as a hard-living 'Wild West' town helping the local cattle ranching and hunting operations. However, with the growth of the tourism industry and the completion of the tar road from Nata in the early 1990s, Maun has developed swiftly, losing much of its old town character. It is now home to over 30,000 people.
