South Africa Tourism|The southernmost corner of Africa, the only lighthouse museum cape agulhas lighthouse highlights: 1. This is the southernmost corner of Africa, not Cape 2.) There is the only lighthouse in Africa Museum 3.) This is Africa's second oldest lighthouse [Attraction Guide] The entire lighthouse was planned in 1837, but it has been raising money, Construction began in 1847 and was completed in 1849. It has been more than a hundred years since it was built in South Africa, and it was only opened in 1994. Cape agulhas The geographical structure is very unique, there are a lot of shipwreck accidents, so there is the title of "ship graveyard"/"wreck graveyard". The ocean depth in the region is only 60 feet deep, 250 kilometers out to sea, and then plummets to 180,000 feet up to Antarctica. In the 15th century, when sailing Portuguese ships circled around Cape Cape, their compass needles would swing and could not be determined according to the magnetic north. As a result, in 1488, Portuguese navigator Bartholomew Dias (Bartholomew Dias) named the marine site " Capo das Agulhas", translated as "pinhead Cape". The lighthouse is designed to emulate one of the world’s seven oldest wonders, the original Egyptian Faros Lighthouse . Its inspired historic buildings stand tall with red and white stripes, just one kilometer from the southernmost tip of the rocky coastline. The adjacent limestone quarry was mined and used as a raw stone. In 1962, due to ocean weathering, the sandstone began to collapse and a new aluminum lighthouse was built nearby, retaining the original lighthouse as a national monument and the only lighthouse museum in Africa. On the first floor of the lighthouse is the ticket office and the museum. This is the only museum in Africa of this type and you can't miss out on the lighthouse. This is a summary of the information of lighthouses around the world, including the United States, Europe, the United Kingdom and other places, explaining the historical origin of the lighthouse, and telling how the lighthouse evolved. The lighthouse is a 27-meter-high circular tower that can climb stairs to the top, with a total of 71 steps. It is not difficult to climb up, just climb down, and feel slower to go, because to climb backwards to the top, push the door out, is a round balcony, overlooking the panoramic view of cape agulhas . The Agulhas Lighthouse is South Africa's second oldest working lighthouse and was declared a national monument in 1973. The lighthouse is used in conjunction with a radio transmitter to warn ships not to come near the coast Details: located at the southernmost tip of Africa, on the southern edge of the village of L’Agulhas in the agulhas National Park Traffic Raiders: No public transport, You can only drive by car or taxi from Cape Town 2.5 hour drive from Swellendam 1.5 hour or so Opening hours: 9:00-11:30, 12:00-17:00. Tickets end time 16:30 Ticket price: 35 rand
