Known worldwide for its unusual entertainment options, the Sun City theme park is more a minicity than a park, with so many attractions and entertainment options that firsttime visitors may find it pleasantly confusing.
Located in the North West province, less than 200 kilometers from the major urban centres of Johannesburg and Pretoria, the Sun City entertainment park attracts all with its African theme and abundance of entertainment options. Far enough from the major cities of South Africa to qualify as a real getaway from busy city life, the Sun City is still the last allinone entertainment destination.
Activities range from adventure sports and safari options to a worldfamous golf course and a wide variety of rides and games to keep the children happily busy.
Many will probably want to swing their clubs at the Gary Player Country Club, home to the worldfamous Nedbank Golf Challenge. Others may want to relax in the sun poolside at the Valley of the Waves while the kids go screaming down one of the water park's many thrilling slides.
Adults can try their luck at one of the biggest casinos (赌场) in Africa before taking in a comedy or live music show, or simply enjoy a meal at one of the many awardwinning but reasonably priced restaurants. They can choose from Asian, traditional South African or Italian, or just order from one of the many fast food restaurants.
Kamp Kwena, an activity park for children where they can learn, play and make new friends, will keep lively little minds well occupied. Minicars, adventure golf and more ensure that the kids don't miss their parents too much.
The Sun City isn't just a hotel or an entertainment place or even just a theme park; it's an entire experience.
