The Mother City Wears Its History In Public

Cape Town’s creative heartbeat is close at hand from Sea Point. There are galleries in Green Point and at the V&A Waterfront, theatre at Artscape and The Baxter around 15 to 20 minutes away, and more intimate productions at The Theatre on the Bay in Camps Bay. In town, the Company’s Garden holds the Iziko South African Museum, the National Gallery and the Planetarium, and the Zeitz MOCAA sits carved into an old grain silo at the Waterfront. Robben Island, a South African National Heritage Site, is the ferry ride most visitors remember longest.
