More of the Bo-Kaap
posted by Kerry-Anne
About a week ago we posted a photo of a street in the Bo-Kaap. Here's another part of the Bo-Kaap, with even more colourful houses than those in the previous post. Many of the current residents of this area are descended from the Indonesians, Malaysians, Sri Lankans and Indians who were brought to the Cape as slaves in the 1700s. The Bo-Kaap is also known as the "Malay Quarter".

After seeing these lovely photo's I must put this on my list of places to visit on our next trip to Cape Town!
Wow. Postcard, calendar or book cover... this one is very special.
I like the color of those buildings.
