Grand Parade Square CapeTown

In Cape Town, a visit to the old parade ground near the Castle of Good Hope blends local flavor with rich history. The group stops to buy samosas from Abdul, a longtime vendor known for his chicken and mince fillings. The area, once a military parade ground, sits near the original shoreline—today’s Strand Street was once the beach before land reclamation in the 1900s. A statue of King Edward VII reflects the city’s Edwardian architectural influence. Nearby stood the first, short-lived mud-and-timber fort built by Jan van Riebeeck in 1652, later replaced by the permanent stone castle that still stands today.
