10 Monuments & Statues in Western Cape That You Shouldn't Miss
South Africa’s most popular tourist destination offers the urban thrills of Cape Town, its adjacent wine country and an aura of the rich political history of South Africa. The Overberg's perfect whale-watching perches provide excitement of a different nature. The Garden Route's lakes and forests and the Klein Karoo's ostrich-farming towns and vineyards present another take on the Cape. For extra kicks, try bungee jumping or cage-diving among Great Whites.

This was our first visit. Will definitely do it again. Beautiful interesting construction with a walk through tunnel. Neat gardens to relax and a small outside restaurant with a view and decent pizzas. Great outing for the whole family.

This was our second trip to the monument. It was just as inspiring as the first time. The views are spectacular right across to the Helderberg and the Stellenbosch Mountains. There were several wedding parties taking photos there, as well as two models. The photos of the gigantic columns, steps and lions are very dramatic & have dramatic atmosphere. cutest little wedding chapel next to the lovely restaurant with al fresco casual dining with a view under huge stone pines.

Very fitting memorial to the Huguenot family that fled France and then basically creating Franschhoek, and the wine region here for what we can appreciate today. Situated at one end of the village with the mountains as its backdrop, this is worth the short walk when staying in Franschhoek.
