One of the things which I found fascinating about South Africa as I learned more about it was the existence of a distinctive architectural style dating back to the early days of the presence of the Dutch there.
Specifically, I am referring to what is called Cape Dutch styled houses, which obviously have strongly been influenced by the architecture in the Netherlands, for obvious reasons.
So while I did not quite manage to get around to visiting the Constantia vineyards, which I was fairly sure would provide an abundant sampling of said architectural style, I nevertheless tried to obtain pictures of this unique - and in my humble opinion uniquely beautiful - architectural style.
Below are some of those pictures. Admittedly, some might be blurry and/or imperfect. But most of them had to be taken from tour busses, which are clearly not the most ideal circumstances to take quality pictures from.
But I did the best that I could.
Enjoy.
