The Jacaranda City is what is known as the administrative capital of South Africa, but it’s not only a handsome city, Pretoria might just be one of the country’s most diverse destinations.

The city offers you all the hustle and bustle of a modern metropolis, but it also has that small-town feel to it. Not nearly as busy as Johannesburg, but also not as laid-back as Cape Town or Durban, Pretoria provides tourists with the perfect balance of entertainment and relaxation.
