If you fancy just chilling out, go to the companys gardens, and enjoy the beauty, and make sure you have breakfast there, its lovely

Peaceful zone in the centre of town, but also a centre for the history of the town, with parliament next door and museums all around. Great views of Table Mountain from the bottom of the park. Well worth a visit.

Company's Gardens is a great venue for a picnic and lazy afternoon. With large expanses of grass and shade trees, you can spend hours here with a good book and a few snacks. Then if you get tired of lazing about you can go visit one of the many museums that border the park. A definite must-see.
