AFRICA: Cape Town
Cape Town as seen from Table Mountain
You know me as Cape Town, and I am a modern city surrounded by breathtaking landscapes. It is my setting, rather than my urban expanse, that will captivate most travelers. My stunning beaches, rolling green hills, steep mountainous escarpments, and my deep, foaming azure oceans are ready to greet you. My towering office buildings, high-rise apartments, modern shopping malls, and 3.5 million of your kind portray a bustling metropolis - and that is indeed what I am. Yet even within my wilderness-tinged urban realm, this notion persists. Come and see for yourself.
