TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY Griffin Shea :'Durban in major facelift ahead of World Cup' Photo taken on February 11, 2010 shows a general view of Durban's Golden Mile Beach, stretching 8 kilometres on the coastline, east of the Indian Ocean in Durban, South Africa. The 200-million-rand (26 million dollar, 19 million euro) improvements along the beach are part of a broader transformation that has seen a notorious dockside red light district turn into upmarket shops and condos. When it's finished, the 15-metre-wide (50-foot) walkway will link the uShaka beach -- near the mouth of the harbour to Africa's busiest port -- to the distinctive arch of the new Moses Mabhida Stadium, venue for seven World Cup matches, including a semi-final.
