Cape Town

Cape Town is the third biggest town of South Africa, it's the capital city of the province western cape.
It has a size of 2455km² and there're living about 3.4 mio. people.
Cape Town is named after the Cape of Good Hope that is 45km away. (The Cape of Good Hope was first
known for it's incredible and dangerous cliffs. Now it's one of the most visited natural reservations.)
Table Mountain, Lion's Head and Devil's Peak (most important mountains) are making the unforgettable and amazing view.
While summer months (December - February) it's about 22-25 degrees, while winter it's never colder than 16 degrees.
Cape Town is rich of beautiful sights, like the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront, the Nobel Square and the Two Oceans Aquarium. Tourists, who are visiting those, are very important for the city because it's the main thing their economy survives with.
A thing Cape Town is known for is the lifestyle, there's no feeling of hectic rush, they're relaxed and there's just no indication of stress.

All in all I'd say, Cape Town is a beautiful metropolis, with awesome beaches, great opportunities of what to do and the main difference to other cities is, there're living so many multifaceted and different people together, without getting themselves into hectic rush - that's gorgeous.
