"The Place Where Cultures And Nature Meets"
 
 
.........MOSSEL BAY, the historical capital of South Africa
ETHNO-BOTANICAL GARDEN

This is a collection of plants that occur naturally in the Mossel Bay area and which were used by the Khoi, San, Coloured, Xhosa and European settlers for shelter, food and medicinal purposes. As well as for magic and superstitious beliefs.

The Braille trail makes it accessible to visually-impaired people so that they can read about, feel and smell the wonderful collection.
