Visit The City of Polokwane,Tourism, Limpopo
The city of Polokwane has a flourishing tourist industry thanks to its scenic setting and sunshine. Tourists can visit the city's favourites include the Eersteling Monuments, which commemorate the country's first gold crushing site and gold power plant. Then there are the Bakone open air Northern Sotho museum, the Hugh Exton photographic museum with a glass collection of some 22 000 pieces and the eye catching green Irish House, a prefabricated structure which was shipped to Polokwane many years ago.The Polokwane Art museum displays the magnificent and growing 1000 piece art collection of the Municipality. The collection is regarded as the most extensive outside the major art galleries in the country.The Polokwane Game Reserve and Bird Sanctuary both offer tourists exciting game and bird viewing as well as beautiful hiking trails.
Polokwane is the provincial capital of Limpopo Province. It is the largest city in the north of the country, and the major economic hub in the province. It is centrally positioned within the Capricorn District Municipality, 60Km South of the Tropic of Capricorn, making a large part of the region easily accessible.The city of Polokwane's proximity as the nearest major centre to the neighbouring countries of Botswana, Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Swaziland, makes it an ideal international gateway and good destination in itself. The excellent climate makes Polokwane an ideal place to live and also promotes sport and recreation. Summer rainfall varies between 400 - 600mm per year.Polokwane exhibits all the signs of an growing and successful area. It enjoys excellent tourism activity, coordinated health and education clusters, fertile agricultural lands and bountiful production with prosperous industrial activities. Nonetheless, unemployment and poverty, although high; the level of unemployment at 41,4% remains a cause for government's concern.
South Africa Vlog: Shopping in Johannesburg
December 21, 2012
We spent the afternoon at Sandton City, a huge shopping complex that is adjacent to Nelson Mandela Square. In the Square, you can also find the Sandton Public Library, which is very nice.
If you have a long layover or, like us, are stuck at OR Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg, you can easily go into the city by taking the Gautrain, a commuter train. Most of the stops are in residential areas, but if you want to do a bit of shopping, see a movie, etc., take the Gautrain from OR Tambo to Sandton City. You'll have to buy a Gold Card, which costs a one-time fee of 11 Rand, then add value to the card. A one-way trip from OR Tambo to Sandton City costs 115 Rand per person, which is pricey but still cheaper than taking a taxi.
If you're staying at the Garden Court Hotel, which provides a free shuttle bus service to and from OR Tambo Airport, take the Gautrain back to Rhodesfield Station, which is one stop before the airport. This will cost you just 27 Rand (compared to 115!)! The hotel is about a 10-minute walk from Rhodesfield Station. We strongly suggest that you take this option during daylight hours. If your shopping trip extends into the night, then we recommend that you pay the extra money to take the Gautrain to the airport then ride the free shuttle bus to the hotel, which is the safest option.
Isola Bella Beach Taormina One of The Most Beautiful Beaches in The World -Summer 2019 New
Hi Guys , and welcome to Ultimate Watchdogs Channel. Anna here , today we can see one of the most Beautiful Beach in the World in my opinion ,that is Isola Bella Beach located near Taormina (Sicily). In this amazing place we can find great attractions for tourists that like a good choice of restaurants with excellent food. You can also get a good foot massage. The many Beach Shacks provide it all at reasonable prices and friendly staff.
Isola Bella is an island of Italy located in the Ionian Sea, in Sicily, in Taormina, an Italian town in the province of Messina. The small distance from the coast sometimes, due to the tide, is annulled, making it a peninsula. It is also called the pearl of the Mediterranean.

10 Earth's Most Spectacular Places - Mount Etna - Sicily - italy
Ferries to Sicily:
Mount Etna is an active stratovolcano on the east coast of Sicily, close to Messina and Catania. Its Arabic name was Jebel Utlamat (the Mountain of Fire). It is the largest active volcano in Europe, currently standing 3,329 metres (10,922 ft) high, though this varies with summit eruptions; the mountain is 21 m (69 ft) lower now than it was in 1981. It is the highest mountain in Italy south of the Alps. Etna covers an area of 1,190 km² (460 sq mi) with a basal circumference of 140 km. This makes it by far the largest of the three active volcanoes in Italy, being about two and a half times the height of the next largest, Mount Vesuvius. Only Mount Teide in Tenerife surpasses it in the whole of the European region (though geographically Tenerife is an island of Africa). In Greek Mythology, the deadly monster Typhon was trapped under this mountain by Zeus, the god of the sky.
Mount Etna is one of the most active volcanoes in the world and is in an almost constant state of activity. The fertile volcanic soils support extensive agriculture, with vineyards and orchards spread across the lower slopes of the mountain and the broad Plain of Catania to the south. Due to its history of recent activity and nearby population, Mount Etna has been designated a Decade Volcano by the United Nations.
