The gardens of Cape Town are at the top end of Adderley street, at the foot of Table Mountain. The gardens were originally established by the Dutch settlers in the late 1650's to provide fresh produce for ships sailing around the tip of Africa to the spice routes of the East. The gardens offer a wonderful green zone in the heart of the city where you can relax or view a wide range of interesting trees and plants, including the oldest cultivated Pear tree in South Africa dating back to around 1652. There are well paved walkways, with both benches and green lawns to entice the visitor to stay. there is also a refreshment kiosk. In and around the gardens you will also find interesting museums and the National Gallery.
