Bo-Kaap

Brightly painted houses, cobbled streets and the oldest mosque in the country.

Why it’s worth it

Bo-Kaap's flat-roofed houses mix Cape Dutch and Georgian architecture. Visit Auwal Mosque on Dorp Street and the Bo-Kaap Museum on Wale Street, in the area's oldest building. A local cooking tour covers Cape Malay food. Walk respectfully, as people live here.
