What to do in Port Elizabeth : Tips, places, hotels and restaurants
A city in South Africa, Port Elizabeth has a population of just under a million people. Located on the coast, it receives relatively few tourists, especially due to its reputation for insecurity. Served by a nearby airport close to the city centre, it has beautiful beaches and a historic centre with some very interesting Art Nouveau style buildings. You can also see the Campanile, a tower 52 metres high which is the symbol of the city, admire the Gothic architecture of the municipal library, visit Fort Frederick, and St George's Park with its rare orchids, the Humewood Museum with a collection of whale skeletons, and the King George VI Art Gallery with its collection of works of British and South African art. The city also represents the starting point for various excursions to places in the surrounding area such as the National Addo Elephant Park, or ‘The Springs’ amusement park.
