Mdantsane is a South African urban township situated 15 km away from East London and 37 km away from Qonce in the Eastern Cape. It is the second largest township in South Africa after Soweto in Gauteng.[1]
The name Mdantsane was derived from a stream that ran from the Nahoon River down to the Buffalo River. Some believe the stream was called Dontsane. Soon after the stream was named, a “white farm” which was at the entrance of Mdantsane [now known as Zone 1] was also named after the stream Dontsane or Umdanzani.[2]
The township is part of the Buffalo City Metropolitan Municipality in the Eastern Cape. The Mdantsane township is the largest township in the Eastern Cape, by population.
