When time comes to fulfill what joy is purpose to his people

Only a statute, but as all attractions in PE, it is not kept in good condition. But it is a save area and a 5 minute stop.

This Hose Memorial is a beautiful aesthetic. During protests there was a point when protesters removed the rider giving the horse water and the poor horse was left standing alone. It's good to see that the rider was brought back.

Sad to say its not been well kept though.Such a historic site needs proper care and maintenance. Municipality is really neglecting this area of Pe this losing on tourism potential

This is not technically about the Horse Memorial, but about a hawker that can be found close by, only occasionally.

I am totally fascinated by this woman - Betty - who occasionally sells mealies from her Merc. So I stopped and had a chat to her today.

Turns out she's originally from Zim, but drives through from G-Town when she has stock - which is supplied by local farmers in the area.

At R11 for a massive mealie, it's worth popping in to support her efforts. You can find her on the corner of Rink Street and the little slip road opposite the Engen garage in Central - just before the Horse Memorial.

Previous reviews on this site have mentioned the dodginess of the area. Please be on the lookout for thugs and hooligans and keep valuables hidden.
