There is much that can be written about culture in Cape Town and the Western Cape.
Cape Town, fondly named the mother city is the oldest and most culturally aware city in South Africa. Situated at the southern most tip of South Africa and bounded by the Indian and Atlantic oceans, it is an exciting mix of first and third world cultures.

The gateway to Africa, it is here where indigenous cultures - San, Khoi and Xhosa followed by Europeans and peoples from the Malaysian and Indian achipelagos first set foot before exploring the rest of South Africa. Indelible cultural fingerprints remains, creating a diverse melting pot and a fascinating travel destination.

Said Richard Busch, Travel Editor for National Geographic Traveler, "By any standard, the Western Cape region of South Africa is one of the most beautiful and compelling places to visit on the planet. Here, in addition to a city with fascinating historical sites, excellent museums, vibrant markets and a handsomely restored waterfront, I encountered mountain wilderness, rugged coastlines, sandy beaches, lush gardens, beautiful wine estates, superior hotels and some of the warmest, most welcoming people I've ever met."
