Pilgrims Rest. South Africa.
Pilgrims Rest. Mpumalanga, South Africa (2003).
Pilgrim’s Rest (Afrikaans: Pelgrimsrus) is a small town in the Mpumalanga province of South Africa which is protected as a provincial heritage site. It was the second of the Transvaal gold fields, attracting a rush of prospectors in 1873, soon after the MacMac diggings started some 5 km away. Alluvial panning eventually gave way to deeper ore mining. In the 1970s the town, not greatly changed, became a tourist destination.

Südafrika - Bourke´s Luck Potholes Strudellöcher - Pilgrims Rest Goldgräber Siedlung
Peter Menzel (PMMedia1) Auf der Fahrt zum Krüger-Nationalpark erreichen wir den Zusammenfluss von Treur und Blyde. An dieser Stelle hat der Blyde River tiefe Schluchten in das Dolomitgestein gegraben und zahllose Wasserfälle gebildet. Vom Wasser mitgeführte Geröll- und Sandmassen haben in den Felswänden bizarre Strudellöcher geschaffen, die Bourke's Luck Potholes genannt werden. 1873 wurde am Pilgrims River Gold entdeckt. In der Hoffnung schnell reich zu werden, kamen zahlreiche Abenteurer und gründeten die Goldgräbersiedlung Pilgrims Rest. Im Jahre 1971 waren die Gold-Vorkommen dann erschöpft. Heute hat man den gesamten Ort als Museumsdorf eingerichtet. Für die zahlreichen Besucher wurden kleine Hotels gebaut, die in ihrem Aussehen die Bauweise der Gründerzeit präsentieren.

Earth-Healing Pilgrimages to South Africa
Mother Africa is an ancient, earthy presence on the planet, an experience that will touch your soul deeply and permanently. As the cradle for our human development, she creates life-changing transformation for all who take her into themselves. Entering into the African dreamtime is a dissolution of the separate mind, and an awakening of inner silence, unity and interconnectedness with the web of life. We perceive this to be one of the great gifts that Mother Africa offers to visitors from the Western world. Those that come for this experience are brought to their inner core of stillness, reconnected with something so ancient and primeval within themselves that they can never be the same again.
