Tshwane/Pretoria is the administrative capital of South Africa, and many foreign embassies call this city their home.
The Union Buildings house the administration of the country and have also been the setting for all the presidential inaugurations of Nelson Mandela and Thabo Mbeki. These sandstone buildings offer beautiful views over the city.
Tshwane/Pretoria has long been a city synonymous with top professional football in South Africa and the breeding ground for many of the country's top players.
Arcadia and Berea Park were the city's first professional sides. In later years Mamelodi Sundowns, Mamelodi United, Pretoria City and SuperSport United have kept up the trend.
The 2009 Confederations Cup will serve as a benchmark tournament for South Africa, ahead of the FIFA 2010 Soccer World Cup South Africa.
