Beautiful displays, etc, well maintained, but I would not go back. I do not care for that part of the city.

Historic mansion of historic significance where the truce to the Anglo-Boer ar was signed. Very well maintained and easy to get to in Pretoria will provide a glimpse to the lifestyle of the wealthy at the end of the 19th century.
