FCO Country Advice for South Africa
South Africa has often been described as a magical
place, it has an extremely diverse landscape with huge amounts
of plant and animal life. There are great forests, swamps, deserts,
savanna and snow capped mountains. It is no wonder that it has
been championed as being a whole world in one country.
With its apartheid rules now over, South Africa , once off the
beaten track for many, is starting to be rediscovered and there
a real sense of excitement surrounding the place. Just be aware
that there are still problems with poverty, violence and AIDS
in certain areas, but things are certainly looking on the up.
