Cape Town Travel Guide - Vacation & Tourism

"Since 1696 when the cobblestones were laid Greenmarket Square has been a popular meeting space. Today, it's where locals and visitors alike barter with vendors who set up shops—from formal stalls to makeshift tables—filled with home goods and African arts and handicrafts. It's open every day, but the first Thursday of every month during Cape Town's city-wide First Thursdays celebrations is the best time to catch live music and street performances." - Katie Jackson Katie Jackson Katie Jackson is a New York City-based writer who covers travel, food, and more.
