Signal Hill (Cape Town)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Signal Hill (Afrikaans: Seinheuwel) is a famous, flat-topped hill located in Cape Town, next to Lion's Head and Table Mountain. The hill is also known as "The Lion's Flank" but this term is obsolescent. It is known for the Noon gun that is operated there by the South African Astronomical Observatory. There is a road to the summit and that vantage point provides spectacular views over Cape Town and surroundings, especially at dawn or sunset.
