    Near the southern tip of Africa, there is a mountain that does a conjuring trick with the biggest tablecloth on earth. In a sacred forest near the Limpopo river, there is a bird that flies on wings of thunder, flashing lightning from its eyes and bearing rain in its beak. In between, there is a hauntingly beautiful land and millions of confused people. When Archbishop Desmond Tutu dubbed his native South Africa the 'Rainbow Nation', he conjured a vision of ethnic diversity and harmony in a country with eleven official languages, two national anthems, and a parliament that shuttled between two cities. As a foreign correspondent reporting on the last days of apartheid, Gavin Bell thought it was a brave image and wondered how long it would endure. A few years later, he returned to find out what had happened to Tutu's rainbow. In his travels he found a country at odds with itself, swinging between hope and despair, buoyed by a sense of freedom and haunted by a fear of violent crime. SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW is not only a fine travel book by an award-winning writer, it is a compelling portrait of a country in search of an identity. The leopard stories are good too.

    Cape Town, the legislative capital and second most populous city of South Africa and the provincial capital of the Western Cape, is also renowned as one of the world's most beautiful cities. South Africa's most popular tourist region covers almost 2,500 sq km (500 sq km of which is the city of Cape Town), has a relatively low population density, an agreeable Mediterranean climate and a flourishing economy with well-developed infrastructure. First inhabited about 12,000 years ago and colonized by Europeans in the 15th century, Cape Town underwent centuries of successive occupation before becoming today's democratic capital. Because of Cape Town's splendid natural surroundings and outdoor lifestyle, day trips to the countless natural sights can be enjoyed by everyone and visitors can participate in many activities - from surfing or whale and dolphin-watching to visiting the national parks, hiking (or taking a cable-car) up Table Mountain or embarking on a wine-tasting trip into the Cape Winelands. You'll find the nightlife and restaurants are excellent and this city boasts great shopping venues, beautiful architecture, friendly locals and above all stunning scenery.
