One of Cape Town’s most colorful and fascinating districts, Bo-Kaap unfurls along the slopes of Signal Hill. This kaleidoscopic neighborhood of brightly hued houses lining cobblestone streets is home to the vibrant Cape Malay culture. The Asian flavor remains in sacred mosques, fragrant spice markets and delicious restaurants. The noontime cannon that booms from atop Signal Hill once helped sailors synchronize their watches, but today it ushers in the lunch hour, when the aromatic scent of Cape Malay cuisine fills the air as it drifts from local eateries.
