The Hole in the Wall at Coffee Bay is a unique str

The Hole in the Wall at Coffee Bay is a unique structure with a huge detached cliff that has a giant opening carved through its centre by the waves. The local Xhosa call this place "izi Khaleni", which means "place of thunder". THE LEGEND OF HOLE IN THE WALL

Xhosa mythology tells a far more romantic tale of the sea people, semi deities who look like humans but have supple wrists and ankles and flipperlike hands and feet. A beautiful girl living on the Wild Coast, in a village near a lagoon, cut off from the sea by a mighty cliff, was seen by one of the sea people who became overwhelmed by her beauty and tried to woo her.

To cut a long story short: in dealing with the wrath of her father, the sea people enlisted the help of a huge fish who battered its way headfirst through the wall of rock. Through this hole spilled the sea people who swept the young Xhosa maiden away. #girlinbluejeanz #meetmeinsouthafrica #becausesouthafrica #travelsouthafrica #travelsouthafrica🇿🇦 #holeinthewall #transkei LINK IN BIO ⭐️⭐️

The Xhosa's are a proud people and their cultural

The Xhosa's are a proud people and their cultural heritage is close to their hearts. Traditionally, the women's clothing and ornaments show the stages of their lives. A certain headdress is worn by a newly married girl; a different style by one who has given birth to her first child, and so on. Women's clothing include dresses in bright colours like orange, green, red and white with braiding and beads over a skirt. The headdress is a colourful braided turban.

The Xhosa people are known for their beautiful beadwork and it forms an important part of women's traditional clothing. They wear long necklaces of beads, with collars of multi-coloured beads around the neck, as well as beaded arm and ankle bracelets. #girlinbluejeanz #meetmeinsouthafrica #becausesouthafrica #travelsouthafrica🇿🇦 #southafrica #xhosa #xhosaattire #africanwomen #travel LINK IN BIO ⭐️

The authentic and dazzling Hispanic-style restaurant makes you feel as though you’re sitting bar-side in Barcelona – complete with lazily spinning ceiling fans, hanging macramé plants, lush greenery and on-trend furnishings.
It’s a treat for the senses and the taste buds. PS the churros are mouthwatering #girlinbluejeanz #jozirestaurants #meetmeinsouthtown #parktown #parktownnorth #yummy #churros #churroslovers
