Shopping Malls & Markets

Strolling around and visiting a mall in Cape Town is part of every South African's lifestyle - and people like to spend more than they are actually allowed to... In these shopping centers you will find many stores, boutiques, department stores, grocery stores, restaurants and usually also a cinema (or entire cinema complexes). The offer is usually the same and ranges from the useful to the useless things in life.

Flea markets in Cape Town are good for a bargain or an unusual souvenir. When it comes to culinary items, collectables, furniture or antiques, Capetonians will travel considerable distances to "secret" places for a few pieces of dried fruit, fresh tomatoes or inexpensive shoes. Cape Town is the city of flea markets, antique stores and second-hand bookstores. There are so many "factory stores" that you could fill a book with them, which you can get as "Pam Black's indispensable A-Z of Factory Shops" in the big bookshops.
