                    INFO:                           EASTERN  CAPE  REGION

 The landscape of the Eastern cape is relatively diverse, from arid desolate Karoo to lush green Tsitsikamma Forest and fertile Lankloof and Sundays River Valleys. The main public game reserve in this area is the Addo Elephant Park with the private game reserve of Shamwari not far away. This was a true frontier post in the early 1800s. Various peoples met along the coastal migration routes and as a result many battles were fought here. White settlers clashed with the Xhosa, Pondo, Zulu and Sotho tribes. The unique architecture of the towns and cities reflects the unique mixed heritage of the people and the many museums reflect the turbulent history.

The Eastern Cape is an agricultural region producing mainly grains and fruits, though there are some cattle and sheep ranches.

Take a look at the map locations of Addo Elephant Park, Grahamstown, Jeffreys Bay, Kenton on Sea, Port Alfred, Port Elizabeth and St Francis Bay.
