Web update following soon..
Long Street in Cape Town has an irresistible ambience and irrepressible spirit. With architecture so unique, it has Victorian verandas with broekie lace alongside Muslim Mosques mingling in a curiously appealing clash of cultures.
And long it certainly is. It stretches along more than 20 blocks of Cape Town's CBD. Long Street is a one-way street stretching from the Waterfront side (previously known as the Foreshore side) to the Gardens side (heading towards the mountain).
The lower Foreshore end is mainly office blocks and endless ongoing construction. But there are some great historical sites such as the Metropole Hotel, built in 1894 and the Mission Church - one of the oldest churches in South Africa. Long Street could quite easily take you a whole day to explore at a leisurely pace. The really interesting part starts after the rather busy Whale Street intersection. Most of the roads intersecting Long Street have stop signs instead of traffic lights
