Area Info

While in Bloemfontein, guests can make the most of the numerous cultural activities on offer. You can do a tour of the Sand du Plessis Theatre which is one of the world’s most modern and technically advanced theatres, or visit Oliewenhuis Art Gallery, a neo-Cape Dutch manor house that has been declared a national museum. Wander through the gardens of the art gallery where state presidents stayed on their visits to the city, and unwind on the rolling lawns, or at the tea garden and restaurant.

Nature lovers will enjoy visiting the beautiful Botanical Gardens, which is the only one of its kind in the Free State, as well as the State President Swart Park and King’s Park and Zoo. A trip to the Naval Hill & Franklin Reserve is a must. The flat-topped hill affords an unrivalled view over Bloemfontein, while the plains boast a variety of giraffe, springbuck, ostrich, and buffalo roaming freely. The White Horse monument makes for great photography, contrasting against the slopes of the hill.

Loch Logan Waterfront forms the entertainment hub of Bloemfontein. It includes rugby, cricket, and athletics stadiums, as well as a number of shops, movie theatres, and restaurants in a tranquil setting.
