The closer one gets to Table Mountain, the steeper the suburbs become, thus Higgovale and Oranjezicht lie on the lower slopes of majestic Table Mountain.
Other than enjoying the ambience of the multi cultural, commercial and residential uniqueness of the City Bowl, there is plenty to occupy one's leisure hours. The City Bowl includes some of the most interesting and historically significant neighbourhoods in Cape Town, providing hours of easy meanderings as well as proximity to V + A Waterfront, restaurants, clubs, bars, shops, museums and historical sites.
Residential living is typically in modern high rise apartments or lofts, in refurbished heritage buildings and/or in life style centred complexes designed for convenient inner city living. Tranquillity and leafy gardens feature in many of the residential areas giving the City Bowl a special ambience. |
