The Cape Peninsula National Park , Cape
Point is an
8000-hectare (19,770-acre) narrow promontory of land jutting into a stretch of
open sea popularly believed to be the meeting point of the Atlantic and Indian
oceans. The peninsula, situated 60km (37 miles) southwest of Cape Town, is
characterised by towering sea cliffs, the highest in South Africa, which reach
a height of 249m (817ft). Criss-crossed by spectacular walks and trails, the
area also features whale and penguin watching, tidal pools, over a thousand
species of indigenous plants and a variety of mammals, such as baboon and buck.
Popular activities around Cape Point also include abseiling, parasailing,
horseriding and surfing.

| Anglo-Boer War Museum |
The
Anglo-Boer War began in 1899 with the British retaliation against President
Paul Kruger’s refusal to grant political rights to the mainly English outsiders
in the gold- and diamond-rich Transvaal. In 1902, after three years of bitter
fighting, the British claimed victory, having destroyed Boer farms and sent
their occupants to concentration camps where 20,000 people perished. Today,
various museums and memorial sites remember those bloody events. The main
museum is the Anglo-Boer War Museum in Bloemfontein , which displays artwork and
artefacts and provides an insight into the horrors of the concentration camps. Talana
Museum , is located at Talana
Hill, near Dundee, the site of the first battle of the Anglo-Boer War on
October 20 1899; it is now an eight-hectare (20-acre) heritage park with a
cemetery dedicated to those who fought and lost their lives there, and also
features displays on local bush traditions.

| table mountain |
Like
Cape Point, Table Mountain is part of the strip of land forming Cape
Peninsula National Park. Table Mountain, however, stands in the
middle of Cape Town and defines the downtown area, with the forested ravines of
its eastern buttresses flanking the southern suburbs. So named for its flat
top, the mountain rises to a height of 1086m (3562ft). Since 1929, a cable car
has carried visitors up to the summit, which offers spectacular views of the
city and its beaches. The mountain is also home to an indigenous rodent-like
creature called the Rock Hyrax or ‘dassie’, the closest living relative to
modern elephants.
Situated 11km (7 miles) north of Cape Town
harbour, Robben Island is the notorious island prison where
thousands of political prisoners were incarcerated between 1961 and 1991 for
campaigning against apartheid. Its most famous resident was Nelson Mandela, who
referred to it as a ‘harsh, iron-fisted outpost’. Used as a prison as far back
as 1525, it has also housed the mentally ill and lepers; its long history as a
place of cruelty and isolation has turned it into a worldwide symbol of the
triumph of the human spirit over oppression. Since 1996, there has been a National
Museum and
cultural centre on Robben Island, where visitors can see, among other things,
the cell where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned. Some of the tour guides are
former political prisoners, able to provide a personal testimony of the
terrible conditions suffered by the inmates

| kruger national park |
Kruger National Park is the largest game reserve in
South Africa and boasts the world’s highest concentration of species. Created
in 1898 to protect the flora and fauna of the South African Lowveld,
the park is named after its original proponent, President Paul Kruger. Today,
it is home to a wealth of wildlife, including cheetahs, leopards, lions,
rhinos, wildebeest, buffalo, elephants, giraffes, antelope and impala. The park
is also renowned for its cultural heritage sites, including many native rock
art sites. At Thulamela Hill, visitors
can see the excavated remains of a late Iron Age settlement, whilst the village
of Masorini provides
an excellent example of the way of life of the Stone Age hunter-gatherers who
inhabited South Africa long before the first white settlers arrived.

| blyde river canyon |
Blyde River Canyon provides some of South
Africa’s most breathtaking scenery and is the third largest gorge in the world,
after the Grand Canyon (USA) and Fish River Canyon (Namibia). The
29,000-hectare (71,662-acre) reserve is home to a rich variety of wildlife
including rare birds and lichens. At the heart of the nature reserve is the Blyde
Dam, which provides a natural habitat for hippo and crocodile,
whilst further afield, in the Lowveld plain at the entrance to the canyon, blue
wildebeest, waterbuck and zebra can be seen. Popular activities in the reserve
include fishing and hiking to beauty spots such as God’s
Window, which offers unparalleled views across the canyon and the
Lowveld. The town of Pilgrim’s Rest is of particular interest as a former
gold-mining town between 1873 and 1972.
