- Salt Circle Arcade - Meeting in Shop 5 at the Arcade
- The Old Biscuit Mill - A converted biscuit factory, the Old Biscuit Mill is now a cutting-edge shopping, dining, and arts hub in Cape Town’s Woodstock suburb, adorned with street art from local and international artists. A wide range of boutiques and stores, plus the Neighbourgoods Market on the weekends, makes it a cool destination for both shopping and events.
- District Six Museum - District Six Museum was founded in 1994 to honor those who were forcibly removed from their homes in the area. In the mid-1960s the South African government began relocating some 60,000 nonwhite residents to a slum-like township miles away and destroyed their homes in order to make the neighborhood whites-only.
- Grand Parade - A prime location for Cape Town’s history, the Grand Parade is where the Dutch built their first fort in 1652; where slaves were sold and punished; and where crowds gathered to watch Nelson Mandela’s first address to the nation as a free man after 27 years in jail, made from the balcony of the Old Town Hall. A market is held on part of the square, which is also used for parking.
- Bo-kaap - Lined with brightly colored houses and lively streets, Bo-Kaap is as vibrant as it is culturally rich. The historic neighborhood, set just outside central Cape Town on the flanks of Signal Hill, is a dynamic melting pot of Malaysian, India, Sri Lankan, and African culture. It was one of the first settlements of freed slaves and Muslim immigrants in South Africa.
- Company’s Gardens - When the Dutch East India Company arrived in what would become known as Cape Town in 1652, one of the first things they did was plant a garden to help feed the settlers. The Company’s Garden still exists, today as a public park. A green oasis in the center of the city, the garden is a favorite of both locals and visitors.
- Green Market Square - The cobblestone plaza of Greenmarket Square is one of Cape Town’s liveliest public spaces. Originally home to a slave market and then a produce market, the square now fills up with vendors selling painted fabrics, handcrafted jewelry, and other trinkets while street performers keep shoppers entertained with music and dance.
- St Georges Mall - Once a congested city street, St George’s Mall is now a pedestrian area in the middle of the city centre, bustling with activity that ranges from live entertainment - provided by buskers, dancers, drummers, street artists and the like - to the sidewalk coffee shops and restaurants at which many locals and visitors to Cape Town sit and watch people pass by.
- Long Street - Long Street plays a significant role in Cape Town’s culture and history. Stretching all the way from the Cape Town Convention Centre, cutting through the heart of the CBD, and ending at Kloof Street, it is a magnet for visitors, both local and international.
- Cape Town City Hall - Cape Town’s old city hall is a grand Edwardian building dating to 1905. Nelson Mandela made his first public speech from the front balcony here after being released from prison in February 1990.
- Castle of Good Hope - The Castle of Good Hope (Dutch: Kasteel de Goede Hoop; Afrikaans: Kasteel die Goeie Hoop) is a bastion fort built in the 17th century in Cape Town, South Africa. Originally located on the coastline of Table Bay, following land reclamation the fort is now located inland. In 1936 the Castle was declared a historical monument
