Culture
Cape Town, South Africa, is one of the most breathtaking cities on the planet.
Nature surrounds this multicultural city, which nestles between a rugged range of mountains and the sea.
One of Cape Town's main attractions is visiting Table Mountain, the flat peak that dominates the city.
For a spectacular view, hike to the summit, or glide atop the cable car. The hour-long walk to Lion's Head also offers panoramic views of the city.
On the eastern slopes of Table Mountain, the magnificent Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens are a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Stellenbosch is one of the most picturesque towns in South Africa. A mosaic of farms, old oak trees and whitewashed Cape Dutch homes, it is one of the best preserved cities from the Dutch East India Company era.
