Top places to visit in Cape Town ,South Africa - 1) Bo-Kaap

If you are ever in Cape Town you have to visit Bo-Kaap (lit. “above the Cape” in Afrikaans) which is formerly known as the Malay Quarter. It is a former racially segregated area, situated on the slopes of Signal Hill above the city centre.

It is the prettiest place you will find in all of South Africa but it has a really sad history. During Apartheid, the area was not bulldozed, unlike nearby District Six, however, non-Malay residents were forcibly removed in accordance with the Group Areas Act,
These houses were leased to former slaves and had to be painted white.When this rule was eventually lifted, and the slaves were allowed to buy the properties, all the houses were painted bright colours by their owners as an expression of their freedom.

Today it is a popular tourist destination where owners are encouraged to retain and rehabilitate the existing residential buildings; ensuring new developments in the area complement existing landscape

Stay At Gravenhof Castle ,Belgium

Have you ever stayed in a castle?
I would highly recommend doing it at least once in your lifetime - it’s such an iconic experience
In the little town of Dworp , in the south of Brussels you can find the Gravenhof Castle. The gardens are beautifully maintained. The rooms were modern with WIFI, the dining room in the basement served delicious Belgian cuisine
I was really sad to hear that this wonderful place closed but I’m so happy I had the experience of staying there!
What was your favorite castle stays?

Oberammergau,Germany

I loved my visit to the charming town of Oberammergau,known for its 380+ year tradition of performing passion plays every decade.This started when the inhabitants made a vow to do the plays if they were spared from the bubonic plague .
