Sunday 6 May 2012: V & A Waterfront, Cape Town

The V & A Waterfront is South Africa's most visited destination, attracting millions of visitors every year - and for good reason, given the location's combination of shops, restaurants, nightspots, tourist attractions and museums in the city's historic harbour. (Construction for this harbour began as early as 1860, when Prince Alfred tipped the first stones for the breakwater, hence the attraction's name: V&A after Queen Victoria of England and her youngest son Alfred.)
