Pretoria: Attractions and more...
Be it sky-diving at the Pretoria Skydiving Club or indulging in shopping sprees at the sprawling Brooklyn and Centurion malls, Pretoria has something to offer all its tourists. The city’s main street, Church Street is not only the longest street in the country but also one of the longest straight streets in the world. With over 35 museums, Pretoria is ideal for the culturally-minded.
When visiting Pretoria, one should visit The African Window (the national cultural history museum) which showcases excavated archaeological material, artworks and early domesticated animals.
On a pleasant weekday afternoon, tourists can find their way to Technopark Boeremark, a countryside flea market at which one can experience the culture of the African people. Top award-winning restaurants of South Africa can also be found here. Pretoria is also the starting point for the famed Blue Train and the Rovos Rail luxury steam train.
