The park is great. Saw tons of squirrels and Egyptian geese. Interesting historical landmarks such as Cecil John Rhodes statue and of course the Arch and St George's Cathedral. A great pity that there are so many vagrants and hobo's lurking around. Surely these people can be removed by the police. Felt very uncomfortable. The cathedral was interesting and access was easy. Just a pity that there were no tourist guides to give a bit of the history of the area. Nevertheless it was...

Beautiful serene place. Beautiful and well planned and tended gardens. Great library right behind it. Free wifi at the arch for arch. The arch itself is the main entrance to a walkway with few pretty traders plying their goods. It is surrounded by a series of written notes as a reminder of what and who South Africa is. A museum of some sort next to the arch. Stature of the Cecil Rhodes in the library garden
