Now converted into a history museum, Liliesleaf showcases the eventful past of the tribal land and the various hardships its revolutionaries faced in a bid to eradicate racism from the country. The farm's several rooms as well as outhouses are home to a wide collection of some riveting objects which provide a glimpse into the life and times of the iconic characters.

Sterkfontein Caves

Stumbled upon by limestone miners and excavated in the late 19th Century, the Sterkfontein Caves feature astonishing palaeo-anthropological findings that rendered it the moniker – 'The Cradle of Humankind'. This set of subterranean caves, replete with knotted stalactite deposits and stone-hewn twists extending from its roof, were first excavated in detail by Professor Raymond Dart and Dr. Robert Broom of the University of Witwatersrand, who documented the remarkable presence of hominin remains in its cavernous depths. These 3-million year old remains were that of 'Mrs. Ples', the first complete Australopithecus skull to be discovered, and an even older Australopithecus skeleton known as 'Little Foot'. This evidentiary site of evolutionary enigmas was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2000, and continues to instill awe and wonder several years after its serendipitous discovery.
