High Street: Where History Meets Hustle (and Maybe a Sneaky Snack)! 🌍👣

Did you know that Makhanda’s High Street is the only traditional "High Street" in South Africa? It is a vibrant, historical focal point for its community, much like the traditional High Streets in England.
This vibrant hub is always alive with activity—businesspeople, students, schoolchildren, vendors, and more create a daily buzz that feels like a non-stop pavement party!

At the top of High Street, the historic Drostdy Gateway, completed in 1842, stands as a striking reminder of the past. Once a grand entrance to a military parade ground, it now invites pedestrians to stroll onto the beautiful rolling lawns of Rhodes University.

Further down the street, you’ll find a mix of historic homes, bustling courts, and ever-changing businesses that blend the old and the new. And let’s not forget the blooming trees and ancient cycads that seem like they’ve been watching forever.

Come for the culture, stay for the charm. High Street is more than just a road—it’s the heartbeat of Makhanda. 💖
