What to do in Pretoria : Tips, places, hotels and restaurants
Capital of South Africa, Pretoria has around 500,000 inhabitants. Located at 1,500 metres above sea level, it also has the distinction of being planted with thousands of jacaranda which when in bloom give a lovely purple colour to the entire city. Founded in the mid 19th Century, it was the symbol of apartheid in the late 20th Century. It is served by Johannesburg International Airport and tourists can explore its multiple interests on foot; admire the statue of Paul Kruger, the city’s symbol, built on Church Square, and surrounded by local monuments as Raadsaal, the main post office, the City Hall with its carillon of 32 bells, the assorted public gardens, the Museum of Art, and the Transvaal Museum, among other places. Shoppers will love Menlyn Park, the largest shopping centre in Africa, where they will find more than 250 shops, dozens of cafes and restaurants, 20 cinemas and a huge arena for performances and events of all kinds. You will not have trouble finding accommodation in the city which offers varied hotel accommodation both in terms of amenities and price.
