Attractions:
Popular points of interest near Absolute Castillo include:
* Jan Smuts Museum - Jan Smuts was one of the founding members of the United Nations. The rather quaint house is laid out as it would've been when he grew up there and there are photographs on the walls of his mother and other family members. The museum part holds the story of his life and makes for
interesting reading if you are history-buff.
