A golfing
holiday in the North West Province affords you the unique opportunity to play at the Sun
City Resort. The resort borders the fourth largest game park in the country, the
Pilanesberg National Park, and a visit to both the resort and the park is a must. From a
golfer's perspective, it is hard to find two golf courses of the highest quality so close
together - The Gary Player Country Club is rated as South Africa's number one, and the
Lost City Course is not far behind.

| Safety
Measures in the North West |
|
Take the same safety precautions
you would in any other international city or town, particularly when sightseeing in
built-up urban areas. Avoid unnecessary display of valuables including jewellery, cash or
audio/visual recording equipment. Do not walk in deserted places or go out alone at night
and as a general rule. Preferably lock your car doors and keep the windows closed. The use
of travellers' cheques or credit cards is more advisable than cash.

| Shopping |
|
| Mega City Shopping Centre is a
modern and attractively designed shopping centre. It encompasses department stores,
restaurants, specialty boutiques, cinemas and theatres. The Batswana are very creative and
they produce fine curios and works of art which are sold in the district. Traditional
carvings in marula, mopane and ebony, and exquisite unglazed ceramic pieces make wonderful
souvenirs and gifts. |
