Kirstenbosch Botanic Gardens, Cape Town

Kirstenbosch Botanic Gardens lies just behind Table Mountain in Cape Town and I wrote about the history of the Gardens on London Traveller. Here I am going to indulge myself further in enjoying the scenery and the plants.

    • Thank you. This is a truly great garden and I hardly started to understand it. I can imagine that if you live in Cape Town you would want to be a ‘Friend’ and visit regularly.

I'd love to hear from you!
