Cape Town has its own unique mix of indigenous music called Ghoema, closely associated with the Cape Malay culture having its origins linked to the musical culture of the Malay slaves. The oldest living tradition in Cape Town is the firing of the Noon Day Gun at Lion Battery on Signal Hill. The Noon Day cannons are also two of the oldest cannons in the world still in use.

Although modern graffiti is still very new in South Africa, it has spread rapidly in recent years. When seen on a global scale, the South African scene is very youthful, but is quickly maturing. Urban art is becoming more popular as internationally acclaimed artists visit South Africa.
Cheerful stuff 😊
