Walk through Kirstenbosch National Botanical Gardens (Cape Town)


A trip to Kirstenbosch Gardens

If you're a nature freak like me, or if you just enjoy going for walks, you will love Cape Town's Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden! I've been there 4 times before and made it 5 yesterday, on a mission to take some pictures for all you tourists visiting South Africa (or locals) so that you can get a taste of what to expect - and because I just generally love spending time there lol let's be honest. Maybe it's the smell of the colourful flowers and bright green plants you're walking by, maybe it's the view of the mountain or the sky you're walking under... maybe it's all of that put together, but there is something about this place that leaves you feeling peaceful and filled with gratitude. There are, what seems to be, millions of different types of plants to be found inside what is known as and proven to be, "the most beautiful garden in Africa!"  Don't listen to me though, head there and experience it for yourself! Below are some pictures I took and you will find all the details on location, prices, times and website below this post!
