Nestled in the Eastern Cape, the origins of the name Rhodes are as mysterious as the mist that graces its mountainous landscapes. Legend has it that this tiny town, merely 16 km away from its own kingdom and perched on the edge of Lesotho, was christened after Cecil John Rhodes. His visionary dreams sparked the railway and mining endeavors that shaped the region. Yet, the allure lies not only in its enigmatic name but in the romantic nature that permeates the air. A village with unknown origins, embraced by misty mountains, Rhodes beckons with a charm that captivates the hearts of those who venture into its hidden embrace.
