AFRICA
" A WORLD IN ONE COUNTRY"
South Africa today is a country in political and social transition.
It is also a great tourist destination with game reserves, mountain resorts,
cosmopolitan cities and pristine beaches. The countryside has wide open
spaces, checkered with farmlands, fruit farms, maize and wheat fields,
livestock farming and green vineyards. The country's identity has
always been closely linked to gold and diamond mining and the mines can
be visited. Game reserves and national parks are set in habitats ranging
from desert dunelands, to shady subtropical forest and are inhabited
by a variety of animal and bird species with over 290 terrestrial mammalian
species and over 800 bird species. Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town offer
a wide range of Night Clubs, Restaurants and shopping malls. A visit to
Cape Town and the wineland to the Cape are a must.
