St Georges Mall in Cape Town (original) (raw)

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.

Did you know? For Tourists, St Georges Mall is a wonderful place to shop, with a combination of stalls, informal traders, art galleries and African curio shops providing any number of goods or souvenirs.

Also known as Cape Town�s jewellery route, there are a number of jewellers based in St George�s Street Mall, which stretches from Thibault Square near the station, up to St George�s Cathedral, one of the only cathedrals to open its doors to all during the apartheid era.

At lunch time this part of the city is exhilarating. It�s policed by a series of security guards on horseback, and though it�s best to watch your wallet and keep your wits about you, a safe place to soak up the vibe of Cape Town.

You�re within walking distance of the station, 10 minutes from the Conference Centre and close enough to public transport that getting quickly to other parts of town isn�t a problem.
