In this beautiful city even transient visitors can't help but devote a few million brain cells to storing images of its grandeur: its striking Table Mountain backdrop, its glorious beaches and enchanting vineyards, its rugged landscapes, its strange and wonderful plants and animals.
Cape Town is famed for its hospitality. Its mix of trendy hostelries match up favourably to those in any other cosmopolitan city. There's a lively cultural scene, particularly when it comes to music, which seems to pervade every corner of the city. The people are open-minded and the mood relaxed.
