Muribani Tourism Center co-operative limited was named after a river called Muribani. Traditional boxing (fist fighting) tournaments for people living in and around the area used to be hosted in this area. Motivation to declare the Muribani area a heritage site is receiving attention from the Limpopo heritage resources authority.
Muribani has a unique landscape. The river resembles a horse-shoe like shape and the ground surface is covered by natural grass. There is a huge baobab tree, hundreds of marula trees, mopani trees and various indigenous trees in the area. It has also been turned into a medicinal nursery. Three wetlands are found in the project.
