Windhoek on Namiibia pealinn ja Khomasi ringkonna halduskeskus.

Asukoht

Windhoek asub merepinnast umbes 1600 meetri kõrgusel riigi keskosas. Piirkonnas asuvad kuumaveeallikad, millest tulevad ka linna kaks algupärast nime: Ai-Gams ja Otjomuise.

Ajalugu

Linn on asutatud 1840. aastal. Windhoek kuulutati osaks Saksa Edela-Aafrikast 1890. aastal ning linna otsustati paigutada Saksa sõjaväegarnison. Windhoek asutati 18. oktoobril 1890 kindluse nurgakivi panekuga.

I maailmasõjaga lõppes Saksa koloniaalajastu ning 1915 okupeerisid linna Lõuna-Aafrika Liidu väed.

Namiibia iseseisvumisega 1990. aastal sai linnast riigi pealinn.

Transport

Windhoekis on üle 500 km tänavaid, millest enamus on asfalteeritud.

Linnal on kaks lennuvälja. Suuremaid lennukeid teenindab Windhoeki Hosea Kutako lennuväli (IATA kood: WDH, ICAO kood: FYWH). Väiksemaid lennukeid teenindab Erose lennuväli.
