"World War" in the Cape of Good Hope! "The southernmost tip of Africa" is here!
I have said many times that the coolest moment in my trip is to see the place names on the geography books appear in front of me. When the names of places in both geography books and historical books appear at the same time, it is almost twice as cool. When you come to Cape Town, you can't go to see the old friend of "Good Hope".
Go to the Cape of Good Hope, we chose a special way to pull the wind - "classic car." Our driver's brother, Stanley, drove us in the car of the grandfather of the 1930s. Along the way, we talked about the language of South Africa, his Cape Town recommended, the maintenance of the classic car, so unhappy, a parking, also opened the hood, generously invited us to visit the interior of the classic car, they have 6 classic cars, really Enviable.
The Chapman Avenue to the Cape of Good Hope is known as the most beautiful road in the world. It is said that the mountain road is 18 bends. Her heroic bends out 114 big bends, one side by the side, one side by the sea, no wonder Advertising for all the top cars in Africa is done on this road! From 1915 to 1922, the road was made by prisoners along the cliffs to the west. Her birth was thanks to the first Chief Executive of the Cape Province, Sir Nicolas Frederick de Waal, who, with his unremitting efforts, was able to get the road that engineers thought could not be completed. Born.
The Cape of Good Hope is a Western explorer who wants to lead to the rich eastern waterway, so it was renamed the Cape of Good Hope. Before the Suez Canal was navigable, the ships between Asia and Europe passed the Cape of Good Hope. The tanker cannot enter the Suez Canal and still needs to sail. The explorer of the Kingdom of Portugal, Dias, discovered the Cape of Good Hope, because of the huge winds, so she called her storm corner. After returning to Lisbon in December 1488, he told Joao II that he had discovered the discovery. If Johann II thought that he would bypass this cape, he would hope to reach the dream of India, so he changed the name of "The Storm Corner" to "The Cape of Good Hope". .
The wood board that marks the geographical coordinates of the Cape of Good Hope is simply a battleground for the military. People of different nationalities and different nationalities are waiting for a series of latitude and longitude numbers! Then take the only commercial cable car in Africa up the mountain and overlook the entire Cape of Good Hope!
said that the cable car has an interesting "ghost story", the name of the cable car is Flying Dutchman (flying Dutchman), in 1641, the captain of the Dutch East India Company, compiled a ghost ship The story, this ghost ship can still not be destroyed even in the savage waves of the "storm corner", always driving until the world is destroyed. This story is hand-in-hand in the hands of the waters of various countries. It is hidden in the waves and fog of the Cape of Good Hope. The name of this ghost ship is called "Flying Dutchman."
After going up the mountain, you can walk up to the lighthouse built in 1849. This lighthouse can be said to be incompetent. Because it is covered with thick fog all the year round, it is impossible to guide the voyage ship. The viewing platform has become the perfect existence of murdering the film in front of the blue sky!
Visitors go to the Cape of Good Hope at most to the name of the southernmost tip of Africa and the two ocean interchanges, but this is just a beautiful misunderstanding. The southernmost tip of Africa is actually the Cape of Agulhas, 147 kilometers away from her, and the actual intersection of the two oceans is also in the middle of the two seas, not in the Cape of Good Hope, which is because of its important geography and history. Status has become an honorary representative.

"Let me go to the end of the world to see - South Africa "Good Hope""
Cape of Good Hope is a very famous horn in the southwestern part of Africa, 52 kilometers north of Cape Town, South Africa. Due to the bad weather here, the waves are soaring, and the ships used to sail here are often in distress, also known as the "storm corner." Later, after the opening of the Indian Ocean route, the communication between the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean did not have to rely on it, so Portugal changed its name to the "Good Hope". Because standing here, you can look at the Atlantic Ocean and the Indian Ocean.
Blue water, huge waves, a stone that stirs up the spectacular waves. Even more surprising is that this is the intersection of the Indian Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean, and the normal sea water meets the special natural phenomenon here. There are thousands of miles here, the reefs are strange, the cliffs are steep, and the fluctuating waters are at your feet. Sitting on the reef and looking at the sea, I always think of Haizis poem "facing the sea, spring blossoms." Looking at the lighthouse standing on the side of the building, the waves splashing under the railings, the white reefs around you, will feel the smallness of life, and it seems that there is a new desire for life, and the people here are too beautiful!
Many people go to the Cape of Good Hope at most to the name of the southernmost tip of Africa and the two ocean interchanges, but this is precisely a beautiful misunderstanding that people have committed. The southernmost tip of Africa is in fact the Cape of Agulhas, 147 km away from her. However, the Cape of Good Hope is also a famous nature reserve. There are many low bushes and piles of bright flowers in bloom here. Rare animals such as antelope, zebra, donkey and black eagle and birds are living here happily.

Africa's Cape of Good Hope, what a poetic name for a place, before arriving here, I remember seeing it in my geography textbook when I was a child. I never thought that one day I would really come to such a distant place. It is the dividing point between the Atlantic Ocean and the Indian Ocean. The wind flow is constantly converging, and it is one of the most dangerous maritime areas in the world. It is also gorgeous, and it is also one of the places on the earth with no pollution. You can enjoy the purest air, blue sky, white clouds and ocean.

I watched a lot of videos about the Cape of Good Hope. Most of them were sunny and showing good weather. The seawater hit the rocks with great enthusiasm. In the distant sea and the sky, seriously, you may be able to see the shadow of the Antarctic continent. I landed on the Cape of Good Hope with an incomparable heart. I did not expect it to be in vain. The clouds started to cluster. The underground abyss only appeared for a second. The air was filled with a thin layer of water vapor. The weather was cold and trembling. Is there really an invisible land in front of me? Is it really a Cape of Good Hope? In such a dense foggy and turbulent situation, I suddenly thought that the foggy front has been unchanged for a hundred years. When the former explorer Dias passed by, it might be such foggy, and the abrupt cape was covered up. When I returned back, it was sunny, and the long-awaited Cape of Good Hope really appeared. If you look at the Cape of Good Hope on the Antarctic continent, will you realize that this is a mirage?

South Africa·I want to go to the end of the world to take a look
As a child, I saw on the geography textbook that South Africa is at the southern end of the entire African continent, and I always thought that the Cape of Good Hope was the southernmost point of Africa. But when I came to South Africa, to this place called the end of the world, I found out that the Cape of Good Hope is not the southernmost point of the African continent.
🌍The actual southernmost point of the African continent is Cape Agulhas, which is more than 100 kilometers away from the Cape of Good Hope. It's just that the Cape of Good Hope is so famous that many people mistake it for the southernmost point.
🚗There are four ways to get from Cape Town to the Cape of Good Hope:
🚖Taxi:
Uber and Grab are quite common in South Africa, with Uber being more formal, and Grab often encountering situations where drivers raise the price.
🚗Self-driving:
Self-driving is very convenient, as you can adjust your destination at any time, but pay more attention to driving safety.
🚌Bus:
You can take the Citysightseeing Bus, which stops at some major attractions.
🚩Tour group/Chartered car:
The most worry-free way, but you have to adhere to the team's schedule, sacrificing some freedom.
There are three attractions on the way to the Cape of Good Hope:
1⃣️Cape of Good Hope Park
It takes about more than an hour to walk from cape point to cape of good hope. The wind is particularly strong, and the waves are particularly fierce. In the roar of the waves hitting the shore, you can feel 'the land ends here, the sea begins here'.
2⃣️Hout Bay to see seals
You can take a boat to Seal Island to see seals basking in the sun, the small beach is crowded with lazy sunbathing seals.
3⃣️Boulders Beach to see penguins
You don't have to go to Antarctica to see groups of cute penguins. Penguins are adorable, but the smell of Boulders Beach, due to the penguins' defecation everywhere, is indescribable.

The South-Western tip of Africa!
There’s just something so special about Cape Point and the Cape of Good Hope. It’s not just the stunning view of the Atlantic Ocean or even the unique plants and animals you can see in the park. Maybe it’s the fact that you’re at the South-Western most part of the continent, and the more you stare out across the ocean, you realize that there’s nothing else out there. Well, that is until you reach Antarctica. Truly one of the most beautiful places to visit in the Cape. You could even say it’s magical. #historicallandmarks #capetown #southafrica #Capepoint #Capeofgoodhope #nature #Ocean #atlantic
