    A place in the Limpopo province of South Africa. It borders the Kruger National Park to the north, Malamulele to the west, Tzaneen to the south and Phalaborwa to the east.

    Giyani can refer to the Giyani region, which includes Giyani Town and the surrounding villages. Sometimes it just refers to Giyani town.

    Giyani is sometimes confused to mean Gazankulu, the former homeland of the Tsonga people. It used to be the capital city of Gazankulu.

    The name Giyani can be a male's name. It means "do dance" in Xitsonga, apparently derived from Isizulu.
