| Church bell tower at sunset in Stellenbosch, a town in the Western Cape province of South Africa, situated about 50 kilometres 31 miles east of Cape Town, along the banks of the Eerste River at the foot of the Stellenbosch Mountain. The town became known as the City of Oaks or Eikestad in Afrikaans and Dutch due to the large number of oak trees that were planted by its founder, Simon van der Stel, to grace the streets and homesteads. |
