Why I want to
visit Africa
Our journey start from Varanasi to
Africa through flight but really I am not interest in this journey because I
don’t like Africa but early year we was decided to go Africa next year. I don’t
like to visit Africa but my family are interested to go there because there is many reason to visit there
the reasons are following…
Today is Freedom Day
Nothing brings home the historic transformation
South Africa has undergone since the dark days of apartheid like a day to
commemorate the country's first non-racial elections held on this day in 1994;
elections won by the African National Congress that brought Nelson Mandela to
power.
The Proud is
Mighty Strong
It's not quite the dizzy heights of January,
when £1 bought R24.5, a record high, but Britons can still get good returns on
sterling, with a pound buying around R21.
Because Cape Town is the World’s Best
City....Again
You really can’t overstate the case for
visiting Cape Town,” says Pippa de Bruyn, a resident of the city and author of our expert guide. “First, there’s the
in-your-face beauty of a craggy mountain range that drops precipitously into a
glittering sea, its flanks carpeted in green. Then there’s the pristine white
beaches lapped by – it must be said – a chilly Atlantic, their curves defined
by giant granite boulders to bake on, and burbling mountain streams in dappled
forests.” That's quite enough Pippa, you're making us jealous.
They’ve got the Big Five
That's lion, elephant, Cape buffalo, leopard
and rhino, in case you weren't sure. And then there's hippo, giraffe,
wildebeest, zebra, meerkats, wild dogs, kudu, hyena and ostrich (including ones
you can ride at Outsdhorrn).
It's heaven for whale watching
Even if you stay on shore, Mark Cawardine, the wildlife expert, explains: "This is one of the
few places in the world where it is possible to watch whales from coastal
footpaths, restaurants, cafés and even from the comfort of your hotel bed.
Hermanus, especially, has some of the best land-based whale watching in the
world."
It’s gone
one of the best luxury train trips in
the world
Got £800 to spare? The luxurious Blue Train route covers the 994 miles (1599 KM) between
Cape Town and Pretoria in 27 hours, with one stop in each direction – the
fashionable old town of Matjiesfontein in the Karoo on the northbound journey,
and the historic diamond-mining town of Kimberley on the journey back. Mark
Smith, the Man in Seat 61, says: “Meals and drinks (and even Montecristo Havana
cigars) are included in the fare, and there is an extensive list of South
African wines available. You probably won’t be able to drink £800-worth before
you reach Pretoria, but you can have a damn good try...”
It has one
of the most picturesque cricket ground in the world
That's Newlands Cricket Ground in Cape Town Photo
: GETTY As well as the world's most extreme golf hole, the 400-yard par three
"extreme 19th" at the Legends Golf Course, where you hit your tee
shot from a clifftop that can only be reached by helicopter.
Now, you are know
the reason.Why I want to visit Africa.
