Nice neighborhood in Cape Town. Manageable in size. Charming side streets invite you to stroll. We bought in a Indian supermarket for little money super.

The Bo-Kaap is also called Malay Quarter, Cape Muslim Quarter or Tana-Baru. The district was created as a settlement of cape-paints, which still make up the majority of the inhabitants. Contrary to the name, only a few came from Malaysia, most were Indians and Ceylonese, many Indonesians. Malay was the commercial language in South Asia at that time, so the name is due to it.

Very nice district. Be sure to come by on a sunny day, otherwise the colors will not look right.
