9 Shopping in Oudtshoorn That You Shouldn't Miss
Oudtshoorn, the "ostrich capital of the world", is a town in the Western Cape province of South Africa, located between the Swartberg mountains to the north and the Outeniqua Mountains to the south. Two ostrich-feather booms, during 1865-1870 and 1900-1914, truly established the settlement. With approximately 60,000 inhabitants, it is the largest town in the Little Karoo region. The town's economy is primarily reliant on the ostrich farming and tourism industries. Oudtshoorn is home to the world's largest ostrich population, with a number of specialized ostrich breeding farms, such as the Safari Show Farm and the Highgate Ostrich Show Farm.

My daughter collects crystals so it was with great excitement that we found this shop. There was such a variety and we spent quite a bit of time oohing and aching before we made our choices. The lady was fantastic and she was patient enough to talk to my son about crystals and answer his questions. Usually he hates waiting around while his sister shops. He even bought a pendulum.
