The view from Table Mountain

Table Mountain is Cape Town’s most iconic landmark, rising 1,085 m above sea level with its distinctive flat summit.
 
Formed from sandstone and granite over 600 million years ago, it is part of the Table Mountain National Park and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
 
Historically a navigational beacon for sailors rounding the Cape, it now draws millions of visitors for hiking, cable car rides, and panoramic views of the city and ocean.
 
Its unique biodiversity includes the Cape Floral Kingdom, making it both a natural wonder and a cultural symbol of South Africa.
