Cape Town is one of the most beautiful cities in the world which will surely be a highlight of your visit to South Africa. The natural beauty of the city with its relaxing beaches and magnificent Table Mountain truly makes Cape Town attractive to its visitors. Cape Town is famous for its cultural diversity and tolerance. You can fly to Cape Town from Johannesburg or you can take a direct flight to Cape Town from most of the airports around the world.
When you visit Cape Town you’ll see a huge slab of sandstone, right in the middle of the town that is the Table Mountain. Its top, for most of the time, is covered in clouds commonly known as the mountain’s “tablecloth”. You can find 1400 unique plants and many mammals on Table Mountain. You can get a spectacular view of Cape Town and its shoreline if you are lucky enough and there is no Tablecloth. Cable Cars are available to take you to the top of the mountain but if you feel like hiking you can also take one of many trails and reach the top of the mountain with a 3 hours climb. On top of the mountain, you will find a restaurant to relax and a few souvenir shops to take something back home to remind you of the trip.
Another must-see place during your visit to Cape Town is the Robben Island, the former penal colony where the famous South African leader Nelson Mandela was imprisoned for 18 years. It will be a half day trip from Cape Town; it is UNESCO’s world heritage site and provides a deep insight into the era of apartheid South Africa.
Victoria and Alfred Waterfront is a fusion of a working harbour and entertainment spot. You will find some of the best shopping options and the most thrilling nightlife in Cape Town. There are a lot of bars, nightclubs and shopping malls; it is also the safest place in Cape Town where you can go for a walk.
Cape Town is a must see city if you are visiting South Africa, so book a nice cheap flight to Cape Town.
