BUS 449 Post 16: Cape Town, South Africa

With the perfect mix of edgy boutiques, independent galleries, and forward-thinking restaurants, Cape Town is a destination on many travelers’ lists. The city has been named the World Design Capital for 2014, featuring more than 450 events in the works.
            You can take a cable car up Table Mountain and abseil down the 112 metres rope. You can choose to dive into the Cape Town waters, but beware that quarter of the world’s shark species dwell in South Africa and nearly half of those call Cape Town home. Locals recommend Test Kitchen by Neighborgoods Market, where you can try biltong (cured meat) topped with plum-cured foie gras. Visit Robben Island and see the late Nelson Mandela; he spent 18 of his 27 years in prison there. Robben Island and the District Six Museum are must-visits for those of you interested in South Africa's period of apartheid.

            Some other interesting sights include the Company’s Gardens (which is the oak-lined pedestrian strip of Government Avenue),  the National Gallery, Houses of Parliament, the Iziko Museum (home to the animal kingdom in taxidermy form), the  Iziko Planetarium (which covers all things celestial), and the Iziko Slave Lodge. Furthermore, there are plenty of places you can go wine-tasting, eat something good and fishy and spots where you can relax and unwind.
