More info about Pretoria (Tshwane)

A utopian location beside a river, the city of Pretoria has long been used as a command centre for both ancient tribes and the Voortrekkers, who formally established the town in 1855. Since then, many a battle was fought and historic treaties signed in Pretoria. Today, Pretoria is the administration capital of South Africa and the official residence of the country’s President. It’s also where most foreign embassies are located.

Pretoria is known as Jacaranda City for good reason; the city streets are lined with thousands of jacaranda trees. When in bloom, the city is awash with purple and violet blossoms.

Pretoria has a fair mix of cultures – a true snapshot of South Africa’s rainbow nation, where young and old, and conservative and liberal, happily coexist. Expect to meet academics, politicians and diplomats during your stay in this handsome city.

Pretoria is known as Jacaranda City for good reason; the city streets are lined with thousands of jacaranda trees. When in bloom, the city is awash with purple and violet blossoms.

Top 8 reasons to visit Pretoria

1. Situated in a 340ha nature reserve and on a peak is the impressive Voortrekker Monument, a granite structure 40m in height. The monument is South Africa’s 2nd most visited heritage site and celebrates the Voortrekker’s Great Trek undertaken during the 1800s.

2. A second historic building must-see is the Union Buildings, a mega sandstone structure that overlooks the city and is the home to South Africa’s parliamentarians. The stepped gardens are loved by the public and where occasional events take place. The Red Bull X-Fighters show stops here every year.

3. For a unique shopping experience, travel Antique Route 6 through the leafy streets of Pretoria to find hidden antique treasures for the loved ones back home. Expect to find bargains and highly unusual merchandise.

4. Stroll through Venning Rose Park to appreciate the lake, the flowers and sunken garden. The Rosarium has over 3000 rose bushes of varying cultivars.

5. Visit the Fried Contemporary Gallery to view local contemporary art. The gallery also acts as a springboard for new artists to showcase their work.

6. South Africans love the outdoors and to braai (barbeque). Take along some wood and meat to the Groenkloof Nature Reserve to braai at one of the many fire pits. A lapa (open thatched structure) can be hired to lunch under shade. The reserve has antelope and several hiking trails and cycle routes to enjoy.

7. Pretoria regularly hosts large events that feature wine, craft beer and whisky tastings, food and craft markets, tree planting projects, charity drives, live open air performances and huge music concerts. Stop by at the nearest Info Centre to find out more.

8. Pretoria’s pulsating night life draws in the local student community and regulars from nearby towns and cities. To watch a good local band, head to the VIP lounge at Arcade Empire.

About Self Catering

Self Catering places can be found from rural to urban areas and can vary in what they offer. They allow plenty freedom and is a great inexpensive way to spend your holiday. They have been widely classified as a “Home away from home”. This is a good option for guests who don’t mind cooking their own food, and are looking for a more independent and flexible form of accommodation. For budget and large families, we would recommend self-catering for a more personalised experience.
