ʻO Cape Pointʻaʻole kahi hema loa ma'Afelika. Ke hele aku nei ka hanohano i ka mea iʻike ikiʻiaʻo Cape Agulhas, kahi 155 mile / 250 mau kapuaʻi ma hikina. Hoʻohui pinepineʻia e like me ke kiko o ka huiʻana o nā Atlantic Ocean and Indian Ocean; akāʻo kaʻoiaʻiʻo,ʻo ke kahawaiʻo Agulhas a me Benguela i waena o nāʻelua Capes, ma kekahi wahi e hoʻololi ai i ka wā. Eia naʻe, oiaiʻo Cape Pointʻaʻole iʻoi loa ke kūlana'āina,ʻo ia kahi kahi i aloha nuiʻia e nā poʻe Pelekikena a me nā malihini kipa.
'Ake likeʻo Cape Agulhas, he maʻalahi a hiki ke hele a hoʻonanea.
He moʻolelo o ka hōʻailona
ʻO Cape Point kahi 0.7 mile / 1.2 kapuaʻi hikina o ka Cape of Good Hope, aʻo ia pū nāʻaoʻaoʻelua o ka Cape Peninsula. Ua kapaʻiaʻo Bartolomeu Dias e ka poʻe Pelekane ma ka inoa o ka peninsula i ke Cape of Storms i kona holoʻana i ka makahiki 1488, a liloʻo ia i European Pelekane mua ma kaʻaoʻao hema o Africa. He mau makahiki heʻumi ma hope mai, ua hahai kahi mea'apuni Pukiki'ē aʻe i kapaʻiaʻo Vasco da Gama i kona mau wāwae, eʻike ana i ke ala moana a hiki i India a me ka Hikina hikina. Ua kapa inoaʻia ka Mō'ī Pelekaneʻo John II i ka peninsula Cabo da Boa Esperança ( Cape of Good Hope) no ka mahaloʻana i ka waiwai i hoʻolaʻaʻia e ke ala hou.
Ua'ōlelo ke ola kaulana o nā luina he nui o ka makani o Cape Point, a ua'ōleloʻia he mea e haʻaluluʻia e ka Flying Dutchman , ua'ōleloʻia kekahi moku moku e holo nei i kēia mau kai mai ka makahiki 1641. Ma kahi o ka moʻolelo o ka moku, Kāpena Hendrik van der Decken. ua hoʻoholo nuiʻia e hōʻailona i ke Cape o nāʻino ma nā'āpana kaumaha āna i hoʻohiki ai no ka ho'āʻo mau inā e lawe iā ia i ke ao pauʻole.
I kekahi'ē aʻe,ʻo ia ke kīlehu iā ia iho i ka huila, e hoʻohiki ana iā ia ihoʻaʻole ia e hoʻihoʻi a hāpai i kahi'ānela. Uaʻike nui nā haneli o nā moku ma nā makahiki he nui, i ka wāʻinoʻole.
ʻO Flora a me Fauna
I kēia lā, hele ka Cape Peninsula i ka hema mai Cape Town no 47 mau mile / 75 mau mile a he kaulana ia no ka loaʻaʻana o kekahi o nā wahi nani loa ma'Akelika Hema.
Ma kona wēlau,ʻo Cape Point kahi māhele o ka Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve,ʻo ia hoʻi kekahi o ka papaʻo Mountain Mountain Park. Aia ka wahi me nā holoholona hihiu, a kaulana nui loa no kona noiʻi (a i kekahi manawa) e hōʻeuʻeha nā pūʻali koa o Capebobo. ʻO nā mea iʻike pinepineʻia i nā holoholona he zebra mauna, kahi hānai, eland, ka hema, nā ostriches a me nā hyra.
ʻIkeʻia hoʻi he mau kāpili,ʻo nā hyrax he pōhaku liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi ka nui e like me ka nui o ka puaʻa puaʻa. Me ka nui o ko lākouʻano liʻiliʻi a me ka hiʻohiʻona o ke kīʻula,ʻo ko lākou pili pili pili loa,ʻo ia ka elephant. ʻO ka heleʻana o ke kaiʻo Cape Point a me nā huakaʻi holoʻokoʻa he manu manu manuʻo ia , e hāʻawi ana i ka manawa eʻike i nāʻano likeʻole he 250. ʻO ka pāʻani kekahi hapa o ka Cape Floral Region, kahi UNESCO Heritage Heritage Site. He'āina kupaianaha ia, me kahi 1,100 mau mea kanu e like me nāʻanoʻano fynbos maikaʻi.
ʻO ke kahakai o Cape Point ke kahakai nui e nānā aku i ka moana kai. ʻO nā Dolphins, nā hōʻailonaʻo Cape Fur a me nā penguins oʻAmelika e maʻalahi ke nānā me ka maka makaʻaka a iʻole nā mea maikaʻi maikaʻi,ʻoiaiʻo nā mahina hoʻomaha (Iune - Nowemapa) ke hoʻolaha i ka hoʻomakaʻana o ke kauʻana o ka moana.
ʻO ka poʻe e hoʻolimalima i ka hapalua hola aʻelua paha ma luna o nā pali o Cape Point, e uku pinepineʻia lākou e kaʻikeʻana o nāʻeleʻele'ākau a me nāʻaoʻao'ākau o ka hema i ka holoʻana o ka makahiki.
Ka Waihona Point Point Point Point
Elua mau kukui ma Cape Point. Kū i luna loa ma Da Gama Peak, ua paʻa ka hale kukui mua i ka makahiki 1859 a ua hoʻohanaʻia i mea e nānā ai i nā mālamalama ma kaʻaoʻao o Cape Coast. ʻO ka lua o ka hale kukui i kūkuluʻia ma kahi haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa i ka makahiki 1914, a ua laweʻiaʻo ia mai ka mua aku. Ke hoʻomau neiʻo ia i ka hale kukui ikaika loa ma'Akelika Hema. Hiki i nā kipa ke komo i nā kukuiʻelua ma o ka Flying Dutchman Funicular, kahi e pili ana iā lāuaʻelua ae hoʻopakele iāʻoe mai ka piʻiʻana o ka piʻipili ma waena o lākou.
ʻO ka hapa nui o nā poʻe e hele ana i Cape Point e hana ia ma kahi o ka huakaʻi peninsula e hele ai i nā wahi'ē aʻe, a hoʻopau me ka manawa pōkole e mahalo i ka nani nani o lākou a puni.
Akā,ʻo nā mea e like me ka heleʻana a me nā holoholona'āhiu paha e pono e hoʻokomo i ka pikiniki a me nā pinoculars ae hāʻawi i ka lā piha no kaʻimiʻana i Cape Point a me ka Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve. ʻO kahi'ē aʻe, e hoʻopau i kaʻike me kaʻaina awakea ma kaʻainaʻaina o Point's Two Oceans Restaurant. Maanei, hiki iāʻoe ke hoʻohālike i nā waina a me nā iʻa i loaʻa hou i ka wā e mahalo nui ana i ka nānā aku.
E kipa i ka pūnaewele Cape Point no nāʻikepili e like me nā hola hoʻomaka, nā uku a me nā kuhikuhiʻana mai Cape Town.
