M.M.R. Maruf:โ"Visited the iconic Union Buildings in Tshwane, and I was absolutely captivated by its grandeur and history. As the seat of South Africaโs government, the architecture is a breathtaking blend of classical and Cape Dutch styles. The panoramic views from the hilltop are unmatched, and the beautifully landscaped gardens add to the peaceful atmosphere. A must-visit for anyone in Pretoria, it's a powerful reminder of South Africaโs journey towards democracy and unity.โ

ๆธธไพ ๅไป:โWhen traveling in South Africa with a group, the first stop was the Museum of the First Peoples. We had to buy tickets and each person was given a wristband to indicate that the ticket had been purchased. We first visited the ground building and listened to the tour guide's explanation. Then we took a small elevator that could only accommodate three people to go upstairs. We could visit the platform, look out into the distance, and move freely. We walked up the stairs to the top floor and saw the top of the tower.โ

Open year round, 24/7
ๅฐ้ฑผๅฟ2015:โOh, it is a large city in South Africa, not far from the capital. The whole city also benefits from the development of gold mine resources. It is a resource-rich city. The environment of the square is quite good, and many white people live here.โ

ๆตทๆด็็ฉๅฐ็พ็ง:โI went to South Africa once in 2015 and made a special trip to see the blue flowers. It was in bloom at the time and was very beautiful. Tourists stopped to take pictures, and I was no exception. I took a lot of pictures. The flowering period is highly seasonal. I would like to come to South Africa once in my lifetime if I have the chance.โ

Opening hours: 06:00-22:00
ๅฐ้ฑผๅฟ2015:โThe City Hall is also a very interesting place. The environment here looks pretty good. It is also one of the modern buildings in the city. The streets are very wide and you can see a lot of good options here.โ
National Zoological Gardens

Opening hours: 08:30-17:30
ๅฐ้ฑผๅฟ2015:โThe zoo is not a very big place, with a rather complicated variety of animals. The protection and design here are not very good, and many animals look listless. The animals have lived here for a long time.โ

Opening hours: 08:00-17:00
Todemmy:โTram number 18 takes you to the Pretoria Botanical Gardens and Zoo so both attractions are easily accessible. The Botanical Gardens are free and a pleasant walk. We just walked around the front and didn't see the greenhouse. The front lawn, gardens, flowers and fountains are very well maintained, neat and clean. Walking around the front gardens, it is easy to enjoy the views from all angles. The paths are flat and wheelchair accessible. Benches are placed along the path to give us a break and enjoy the views of the Botanical Gardens.โ

่ๅฐ็ๅฎ๏ผ็จไธ่ฃ๏ผ:โWe visited wildlife parks near Johannesburg, the most famous of which was the Lion Park. There are many wildlife parks in South Africa, and the types of wild animals are also very complete. However, there are some problems with the security in Johannesburg, so we need to be vigilant.โ
