About Pretoria
Pretoria is South Africa's administrative capital in Gauteng, known for jacaranda-lined streets, the Union Buildings and sites of the nation's history.
Pretoria sits in a valley between ridges of the highveld, about an hour's drive north of Johannesburg. The Union Buildings, a sweeping sandstone complex on a hill with formal gardens, is the seat of the presidency and the site of Nelson Mandela's 1994 inauguration. Church Square, with its statue of Paul Kruger, is the historic heart, and the Voortrekker Monument stands on a hilltop, a granite landmark with a museum inside.
Top-ranked sights in Pretoria: Voortrekker Monument, Union Buildings, Kruger Museum.
