The Capital City of Pretoria

About 30 miles north of Johannesburg is the city of Pretoria. It is the administrative capital of South Africa.  It is smaller than Jo'burg but it is much more beautiful.  The Union Buildings (the government center) sits on a hill overlooking the city.  The gardens are incredible.  I am going to let the photos speak for themselves.
