Good Hope Castle is a very historical place, and this is here at the Cape of Good Hope. If you are visiting the Cape of Good Hope, it should also be horse riding, and it is also a good scenery to enjoy the Cape of Good Hope from here.
If you look at the Fort Good Hope from the top, the angle is super good and very beautiful. The area of the Fort Good Hope is not large, but the building is very special, and the opposite of the Fort Good Hope is the endless Atlantic Ocean.
You can choose to go up, you can also choose to take the cable car, and then walk down, you will find that the scenery is really beautiful, but there are many people who walk down, and it is not easy to take pictures. There is also the smell of sea water in the air, which is very fresh and natural.
Good Hope Fort, this is the earliest city site in Cape Town. What attracted my attention was the wooden furniture in the past. Take a few photos while the staff relax. It’s shocking or it’s worth visiting, but it’s early to close the door. Please go early.
A very long castle has achieved a dynasty. The decoration inside is also very characteristic.
It is in the center of Cape Town. The building is very distinctive. There will be an English tour guide to explain. You can learn about some South African history. There is a gun ceremony at noon every day. The overall tour is enough for1-2 hours. You can visit Table Mountain and waterfront.
