The folding valleys located on the east of Cape Town in South Africa are home to the world’s most famous Cape Winelands lined deep into the Cape Fold Mountains. Cape Winelands is historically known for its mass production of South African wines sold across the world.

Though the wine yards are breathtaking, the mountains in this part of South Africa have an irresistible aura of scenic beauty, one of the reasons why grapes grown here do very well. The Winelands have in the recent past become a major tourist destination and it is the one place where you will not think twice about having your honeymoon.
