A city resident in the modern world, tired of the bustle of streets and crowded with cars, often traveling on a trip to a new country, I want to visit a place where you can just relax with thoughts and soul. Selecting the destination of South Africa , and more specifically Johannesburg , and more specifically - its residential suburb of Alberton, it is worth to visit the park Rhodes, where you can have a great time with your family or alone with yourself.
Rhodes Park is an oasis of peace and tranquility
By itself, the suburb of Alberton - a small and very quiet place, which in fact can be safely called the analogue of a large metropolitan sleeping area. Here is the park of Rhodes, where tourists will be impressed by the landscaped garden and the lake located in its center. Take a leisurely walk along the alleys, or spend time on the lawn in a cozy gazebo, or maybe admire the pond along the banks of which trees are planted - here every tourist can plunge into a special atmosphere of peace and tranquility.
Rhodes Park is loved not only by tourists, but also by local residents who spend time in the shade of alleys after working weekdays and on weekends.
The convenient location of the park Rhodes
Enter the park itself will not be possible by car, as its territory is fenced, but there is a parking lot nearby where visitors arriving by cars can leave their vehicles.
Get to the park will not be difficult. It is necessary to go to the main Albertona street Albertina Sisulu Rd and get to the ninth avenue, and after turning on it to the left and, after traveling quite a bit in a straight line, the tourist will get to the park. Also, you can take buses that depart every half-hour from Johannesburg to the suburbs.
Enjoying the peace and quiet of the surrounding countryside, the tourist does not have to go far beyond the "portion" of the usual city life, since just outside the park area is a large shopping center called "Eastgate". Also very near are some of the best hotels in the city, and so you can stay in a hotel near the park and make daily walks. Finally, there are problems with where to have a snack from a tourist also does not arise, and, having strolled along park alleys and paths, it is possible to have a tasty lunch or dinner at a nearby restaurant.
Thus, summing up all the advantages of this excellent place for passive rest, we can distinguish the main advantages:
- calm, peaceful atmosphere;
- beautiful views of the lake, pond and garden;
- availability of car parking next to the park;
- Well-developed infrastructure: close proximity to shopping mall, hotels, restaurant.
