The establishment is called a "park" because it was originally established as a reptile park. The cultural village was added later and it should not be read into the name that people are in fact "exhibited" in the same way that Phezulu's animal species are. The Zulu nation is a very proud people and the cultural village offers a glimpse into their rich and complicated cultural life.

The low-key cultural village consists of a number of tribal, bee-hive shaped, Zulu huts, the traditionally dressed inhabitants thereof who follows more or less a traditional life style, performances by local tribal dancers and introductions to a sangoma (traditional healer). Phezulu's location is indeed in an area where Zulu culture still thrives. However, in order to make the traditional way of Zulu life accessible to visitors on short stops it is somewhat touristy. The village performs a short play at scheduled times of the day in which visitors are introduced to different aspects of Zulu culture and traditions.

The reptile park houses and displays a variety of species including crocodiles and snakes. PheZulu has also introduced its own "game bush drives" into the 1000 hills area. While it is home to some wild animals, the area is also rich in indigenous flora and shrubs that colour the hills.

A curios shop and the Imbizo Restaurant, which offers views onto the beautiful hills of the surrounding valleys, complete the Phezulu experience.
