Discover the administrative capital known as "Jacaranda City."
Pretoria is a city of tree-lined avenues, fascinating architecture and historic monuments. A drive along Government Avenue will take you to the Union Buildings, a symbol of the new Democratic South Africa. As part of the executive government the building cannot be visited but the beautifully manicured terrace garden, planted with indigenous species and scattered monuments, memorials and statues, is an attraction in its own. From the Union building meander the streets of Arcadia heading to the city centre to visit the Kruger house Museum. This modest Edwardian style home was occupied by Paul Kruger from 1894 to 1900; it contains interesting souvenirs of Oom Paul's life, the founder of the Afrikaans Nation. Complete the tour with a drive through Church Square to Voortrekkerhoogte, the hill on which the Voortrekker Monument is built. The Monument, rising like a sentinel in the south of Pretoria is an essential piece of the puzzle in understanding the Afrikaner people. The friezes explain their entire history from the Great Trek up to the Battle of Blood River and the forming of the Boer Republics.
