Table Mountain is a very significant part of Cape Town. Being not only one of the 7 Wonders of the World, but a great place to go for a run or climb. If you are not one for climbing, there is also a cable car so that you can experience the beauty of it anyway. We suggest that you wake up early to climb, so that you beat the crowd. Make sure that the weather forecast is good, too.
