The Long March to Freedom in Cape Town is a captivating outdoor exhibition featuring the world's largest procession of life-size bronze statues, celebrating South Africa's 350-year struggle for freedom and democracy. This remarkable display includes 100 statues that honor both famous and lesser-known heroes, ranging from Khoi leaders of the 1600s to key figures in the anti-apartheid movement. Each statue appears to move forward, symbolizing the ongoing journey towards liberty, and collectively, they tell a powerful story of courage, resilience, and cultural heritage.

A must see for every South African, and every visitor to this country. I was in awe at the quality of the bronze works and attention to detail. The passion of the guides like Tumo are also evident. I wish the location was more visible to passers by though, or perhaps better signage in and around Century City.

It is a wonderful exhibition. The entry fee is so low. The guide, Walter, was very good. It was so hot on the day we visited, and Kenneth provided us with the use of umbrellas, without anyone asking, and it made our visit very comfortable. Will definitely visit again and will recommend to more people. I do feel more advertising/marketing will be needed. I encourage anyone to visit this amazing exhibition!
