The Waterfront attracts more than 23 million visitors a year.
Soon after your hotel is picked up by an expertly qualified tour guide driver, you will be taken to the new 'The Long March to Freedom' which used to have its home in Pretoria. This is the Long March to Freedom, part of a bigger development of over 500 life-size bronze icons of South Africa's struggle for freedom. All the figures together represent a timeline of South Africa's 350-year journey to democracy. It began in 1652 with the establishment of the Dutch East India settlement in Cape Town and ended in 1994 with the country's first democratic elections. It is the largest outdoor sculptural display of individuals in the world and uses public art to celebrate the country's heritage while allowing visitors to learn about South African history unusually and entertainingly. All statues featured here must fulfill strict criteria.
