amazingly amazing
Great place for breakfast on a Sunday morning...beautiful views and child friendly.
Rhodes was an English colonialist who did everything from established DeBeers (40% of the world's diamonds) to found Zimbabwe. He was a dynamic man to say the least, but that's not the point at all. What's important is that Rhodes Memorial has a great view of the other side of Cape Town, the one behind the mountain without the sea view. The darker one with all the gorgeous gardens and lush greenery, yes, in Africa.Bring a picnic on a nice day, or a bottle of wine, after a long Kirstenbosch visit and view how Capetonian life goes on and on, as far as the eye can see.
