Meet the 'big five' safari animals: the lion, the African elephant, the leopard, the rhinoceros and the Cape Buffalo, plus lots more incredible wildlife. Discover the Springbok passion for all things sport, from rugby and cricket to football, swimming and cycling, and find out why their sports teams are among the best in the world. See the sights in South Africa's three capital cities: Pretoria, Bloemfontein and Cape Town. Explore South Africa's diverse and interesting landscape - from veld to coast, deserts and rivers. Read all about Nelson Mandela, who many consider to be the founder of modern South Africa, and the apartheid era he fought to end. Discover the unusual meats South Africans love to feast on, from ostrich to crocodile and antelope! Find out all about the treasure that exists underground in South Africa, from gold, silver and copper to dazzling diamonds. Uncover the history behind some of South Africa's most exciting festivals and holidays, such as the 'Second New Year' held every January in Cape Town.
