Known and loved for its safari parks and diverse ecosystem, South Africa offers so much to tourists and is experiencing a rapid rise in visitor numbers. What's less known is the fact that the country has three capital cities; Cape Town, Pretoria and Bloemfontein. The largest and most accessible for travelers disembarking in the country for the first time is Cape Town, the seat of parliament. Cape Town is adored for its beaches, architecture, vibrant and diverse population, the waterfront, botanical gardens and, on occasion, the penguins may visit. Robben Island is situated just off the coast and tells of the country's struggle for emancipation from discrimination, epitomised in one man's story. Kruger National Park is the country's most famous safari park and offers its visitors hot air balloon rides and a wide range of campsites in conjunction with amazing wildlife. Blyde River Canyon is Africa's second largest canyon, and aptly named 'God's Window'. Nestled in the centre of the country is Johannesburg, the historical and economic heart of the country with many museums and monuments detailing the best and the worst of the country's past.
