Heritage Sites - Wildlife, Culture, Beauty

Rich in culture, wildlife and natural beauty, South Africa has many places of interest worth visiting, with the five UNESCO World Heritage Sites being especially noteworthy. These are the Greater St Lucia Wetland Park, Robben Island, uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park, the Cradle of Humankind and the Vredefort Dome, which have all met the UNESCO World Heritage Site's criteria of making a significant contribution to either the environment or to the history of mankind.

In addition to these five World Heritage Sites there are many natural and cultural heritage sites which make for fascinating excursions. One example being Thulamela Hill in the Kruger National Park which has at least three interesting sights. Similar interesting places are dotted throughout the country, so if you are interested in seeing more of them, make sure that your travel agent knows this and will include some of these sights as part of your travel plans.
