Madiba is being honoured by the Western Cape provincial government with laser projections shone onto Table Mountain this week.
The display will shine every night until the 16 December. If you’re keen on the idea of sitting somewhere nice, looking at it and having a good think – it will be most visible from 21h00, and switched off at midnight.
The provincial government said that Table Mountain was a significant landmark for Mandela during his years of imprisonment on Robben Island.
While the apartheid authorities tried to break the spirit of Robben Island prisoners, Madiba and his fellow freedom fighters were inspired by one of the Cape’s iconic natural wonders to resist those attempts.
