The Cape Town is fascinating. The first impression one gets when talking about an African city is a destination full of exotic, wildlife and nature. This is just one part of what one can enjoy in Cape Town , the second largest city in South Africa, one of the ten destinations most visited tourism in the world.

The surrounding city is a mountain, Table Mountain (Table Mountain), which is shaped like a table, followed by a rock formation with 12 peaks, which was named by locals as "the 12 apostles." It is not very large city, is limited by the outline of Table Mountain with the Indian Ocean on one side and the Atlantic Ocean on the other. Along the city have the Cape of Good Hope, the most southerly point of Africa.

The style of the town oozes charm and colonial buildings and public buildings (the legislature of South Africa is based in Cape Town), as well as museums of various communities, for example Jews and Muslims.

Located in the province of Western Cape, Cape Town is also known for freedom of expression from a country in flux. Haven for artists from around the African continent, local society makes room for the public gay (marriage between same sex is allowed in South Africa) and receives hundreds of tourists who perform marriages in the friendly atmosphere and romantic city.

The climate of Cape Town, however, is not exactly a beach destination geographic location is right in the middle of the Antarctic current, ie, even with days of sunshine and pleasant breezes and winds make the temperature range between 4 and 12 degrees in winter and 15 to 29 degrees in summer. Many people visit the city and go away without seeing the mountain, the main postcard of the city.
