welcome to my flat in Cape Town I have a picture of Bo Kaap right there of course
we have some tea and boom - the center of the city. We are in San Diego I mean
South Africa cape town. I am in Cape town at night and if you wanted to see the
Christmas decorations here they are. So a lot of people were asking me if they
celebrate Christmas here in Cape Town because it's actually spring well
there's a few decorations and some palm trees this right here is the silo
district these brand-new buildings all glass we visit the Victorian and Alfred
waterfront in Cape Town which is the oldest working Harbor in Cape Town named
after the royal family's visit in 1860 it's a family-friendly location in here
we were able to catch a Christmas concert happening in the plaza
the waterfront area lit up with numerous Christmas decorations reminds me a lot
of oslo at night with the waterfront and all the restaurants and top-notch
businesses the waterfront is pedestrian friendly and surrounded by mountain
views in since it's spring here the weather is 71 degrees Fahrenheit
Christmas here they do even though it's free there's an old silo building that
been converted to a hotel
this is the work area have a lot of nice little restaurants here Silo district
and look at this sign it says Silo love the Zeitz MOCAA which is a Museum of
Contemporary Arts of Africa look at the interior of this place we head straight
up to the sixth floor at the site's mocha for a surprise at the top the
sixth floor has some of the most beautiful views of the harbor front
it's got black face cream and it's flavored with rose and then this is the
hotel the silo hotel and then look here when we walk across oh my god
six stories high see-through glass at the top of the silo building this is the
Zeitz MOCAA Museum this terrace alone is worth the admission price it's
absolutely stunning how about that table now oh my God look at Table Mountain
Zeitz Museum here in Cape Town South Africa we are at the sixth floor terrace
check out the silo silos don't look down you can see all the way down and it's
called a loco from an artist born in Togo
It looks like an alien egg - like if you cut open an alien egg that's what it looks like wow
it's all concrete see-through sealing I love this elevator all glass
the site's mocha opened in 2017 and has the world's largest collection of
contemporary African art let's check out the collection was done by a South
African artist and its wool and thread this one is called shock moss by a South
African art
to get into one of the galleries we have to pass security this is a common sight
in Cape Town and this is an installation called right of admission
so this one's called right of admission and it is a mockery of the security
gates here and it shows that by pressing the request button and makes you feel
intimidated by the space of security and says I feel most colored when I'm thrown
against a sharp black and white background and then says it over and
over again
art is only seen through the 3d headset exit this is really really secure here
was her favorite piece of art in the site's she had loved the installation
about JimBob layers very meaningful very awesome and I really like the security
gate I thought that it was a really cool take on the culture here look at these
cool chairs that they put out for people when we came here at night everyone was
having picnics this is an awesome spot to show the photo shoot spot bike
parking here in South Africa lunch rush here a lot of businesses on the floor my
