   Where is Bo Kaap in Cape Town?

   • Bo Kaap is smack dab in the middle of Cape Town. It’s on the slopes of Signal Hill, right near the city centre, so it’s super easy to get to. In my experience, it only takes 15 minutes (maximum!) to get there from any of the city’s central neighbourhoods. Where to begin?

   Why should you visit Bo Kaap?

   • As well as being aesthetically pleasing, Bo Kaap is actually Cape Town’s oldest surviving neighbourhood and is steeped in tradition and culture, with family-owned businesses on every corner. Visiting this Cape Malay enclave not only taught me a lot about the area itself, but the history of Cape Town as a whole.

   Where did Bo Kaap come from?

   • Bo Kaap started out in 1760 when Dutch colonist Jan de Waal built some small houses in the area which he leased out to slaves. These slaves were mostly Muslims who came from the Dutch East Indies, which included Malaysia. Thus, they became known as “Cape Malay” people – a term that is still used today.

   Why were the houses in Bo Kaap painted?

   • This act was introduced 1950 and forbade different racial and religious groups from co-existing. Since Bo Kaap had always been a Muslim enclave, it was designated a Muslim-only area and so most Cape Malay people were able to remain. I’m just going to come right out and say it: Nobody REALLY knows why the houses in Bo Kaap were originally painted.
