EDITORS COMMENTS
Greenmarket Square, Cape Town, South Africa (1906): A Vibrant and Historical Gathering Place Greenmarket Square in Cape Town, South Africa, is a bustling and historic open-air marketplace that has been a beloved gathering spot for over three centuries. This photograph, taken in 1906, showcases the square during the Southern Colony era. The image reveals a lively scene filled with African vendors selling their wares, children playing, and locals socializing. Centered in the square, an Olde Tavern, with its distinctive thatched roof, stands as a testament to the area's rich history. The tavern, which was not affiliated with the Argus Company, was a popular watering hole for weary travelers and locals alike. The long market street, visible in the background, was home to various shops and stalls selling everything from fresh produce to handcrafted goods. The photograph, taken in the early 1900s, captures the essence of Greenmarket Square during a time when Cape Town was still a vibrant and diverse cultural melting pot. The African community played a significant role in the market's success, contributing to its unique character and charm. As the sun sets on this enchanting scene, one can't help but be drawn in by the energy and warmth of Greenmarket Square. The square continues to be a cherished part of Cape Town's heritage, attracting visitors from around the world who seek to experience its rich history and vibrant atmosphere.
