Situated at the tip of an ancient and intriguing continent, South Africa is a land of many contrasts and infinite natural beauty. South Africa – Landscapes captures in over 100 full-colour photographs the sweeping vistas, superb wildlife and breathtaking scenery that make the country unique. Cape Town, the Mother City, is dominated by Table Mountain, and its beaches and winelands are among the world's finest. Inland are the craggy Cedarberg, Namaqualand's celebrated wildflower displays and the Richterveld's mountainous desert, with the Augrabies Falls, one of Africa's natural wonders, an oasis in the largely uninhabited Northern Cape. Contrasting sharply with the arid north and the aloe-studded Little Karoo are the lush indigenous forests of the Garden Route and the subtropical east coast. Land of the Xhosa, the Eastern Cape leads to the pristine dunes along KwaZulu-Natal's coastline and the spectacular Drakensberg, South Africa's highest range. From the Free State's vast fields of sunflowers and rugged sandstone formations to the famed wildlife sanctuary of the Kruger National Park, and from Johannesburg, the country's financial heartland, to the fantasy world of Lost City, South Africa – Landscapes vividly portrays the splendour of this fascinating land.
