Why go
Terraced public gardens sit below Pretoria’s seat of government, giving visitors views of its architecture and grounds. Explore the gardens and exterior viewpoints; the offices are not set up for casual touring. The gardens make this a public-space visit as well as an architectural one, with the building forming the backdrop rather than an interior attraction.
