  • This ranks as one of the most extraordinary hotels in the world. It forms the centrepiece of the amazing Palace of the Lost City. This fairytale was built with incredible attention to detail with interiors featuring exquisite mosaics and amazing hand painted ceilings depicting the South Africa's wildlife and culture.
    Quite amazing when you think that that this is located in a very remote part in South Africa, far from everything, pretty much an oasis in the middle nowhere!

  • One of the main reasons why so many visit Sun City, is for the gambling.
    Many come here with the hopes of winning that million that is desired by many.
    Main Gambling areas are at the Entertainment Centre which is close to the Cascades Hotel.
    Then at the Sun City Hotel, there is another casino.
    All casinos have machines, as well as Roulette and Blackjack.

  • Guarded by mightly African Elephants, is the Bidge of Time.
    This bridge links the Entertainment Centre to the Valley of the waves.
    On regular intervals throughout the day it will start rumbing giving the impression that its a erupting volcano.
    Quite cool really, and very popular amongst visitors.

    Things To Do: Monkey Spring Plaza

  • Monkey Spring Plaza is there to commemorate a troop of monkeys that saved the lives of an ancient tribe from starvation during a drought.
    Its a really nice water feature, showing monkeys sitting down with their hands sticking out, and the water running between their fingers, very well done.

  • No visit to Sun City is complete without a game drive through the Pilansberg National Park.
    The park has a very large variety of animals which include the Big Five.
    Game Drives can be done independently and with your own car, or if you wish you can go on a guided game drive, which is very educational as they teach you very interesting facts about the animals.

     I have not been to SunCity for a while, so I am taking a trip with you. The Sun City Hotel has had a major refurb...which it needed badly.
