This unique neighborhood takes its name from the majestic creature that has captivated our imaginations for centuries - the giraffe. Picture No. 10851098 transports us to Africa's Etosha National Park in Namibia, where a herd of zebras and graceful giraffes gather at a waterhole, creating a breathtaking sight. The allure of giraffes extends beyond their natural habitat. In William C Harris' painting titled "Hunting the Giraffe, " we catch a glimpse of South Africa's KwaZulu Natal region in Spioenkop Game Reserve, where these magnificent animals roam freely. Giraffa Bewick (DDE-90020643) showcases another species within this remarkable family.

The vast plains of Amboseli National Park in Kenya provide an awe-inspiring backdrop as these elegant creatures run across them with grace and agility (Digitally enhanced image).
