Affectionately known as the Mother City, Cape Town lives up to its name by being the go-to location for locals and international tourists alike. This West Coast city boasts a cosmopolitan lifestyle that attracts those who value working and living in a city with countless leisure activities and a high standard of living.A brief history of the areaCape Town is a historically significant city in South Africa's past. Jan Van Riebeeck arrived in 1652 and laid claim to this useful supply station and sailing port. However, he wasn't the first to do so. Bartholomeu Dias and Vasco De Gama both beat him to it by exploring the city in 1486 and 1497 respectively. The first European settlers began arriving along their travels between India, the Far East and Eastern Africa and established permanent residency along the Atlantic ocean. Long before the modernisation of Cape Town began, the Western Cape survived the Ice Age and early indigenous tribes developed bows and arrows for hunting. 6000 years later tribes of skilled indigenous people began to move inland and the agriculture of crops was born.Distance from key points (Airport/CBD)Travel time to Cape Town International Airport is approximately 16 minutes (17,7 km) via the N2 from the CBD. The CBD is called the City Bowl and is the financial centre of South Africa. It is approximately 18 minutes (19,5 km) away from the airport via the N2.ClimateThis beautiful city has a Mediterranean climate. Winters are rainy and wet ranging from 12°C to 19°C, while summers are dry with late evening sunsets and temperatures between 22°C and 28°C. It's perfect if you enjoy socialising while taking in the view from numerous vantage points across the city. Cape Town locals also enjoy hiking the famous mountain trails on Lion's Head and Table Mountain. The weather conditions in autumn, summer and spring are perfect for outdoor activities like running along the promenade or biking across Camps Bay. The Atlantic Ocean is known for being chilly at best, but that doesn't stop many from windsurfing and yachting.Schools in the areaCape Town is home to some of the best schools and universities in the country. There are a number of educational institutions for all age groups spread throughout the city. Multiple international schools are also available. Some notable primary schools are Bergvliet Primary School, Grove Primary School and Oakhurst Elementary School. Moving on to high schools, Constantia Waldorf School, Cedar House, Claremont High School, Westerford High School and more offer a great mix of public and private education offerings.On a tertiary level, the University of Cape Town, Stellenbosch University and the University of the Western Cape hold historic value and still produce some of South Africa's top graduates in various professional fields.Healthcare in the areais one of the leading hospitals in the world and can be found in the heart of Cape Town.
