== History == Mokhotlong's role as a police post first brought people to this part of Lesotho in 1905. It developed into a trading centre for the people of the Highlands region. However, the settlement was preserved from major development by its separation from the rest of the country. Radio contact was first established with Maseru, the capital city, in 1947.
