Postcard
The Kingdom of Lesotho, is a landlocked country and enclave, completely surrounded by its only neighbouring country, the Republic of South Africa.

Does it ever snow in Africa? One of the few places in Africa where there's regular snowfall and even a chance to ski. Lesotho is one of the coldest countries in Africa. During the coldest month, July, the temperatures range from -3 to 17 °C.
