Beautiful place to visit with a stunning view of parts of Pretoria. It's easily accessible from different directions. The gardens are well maintained. But wow, the toilets stink. I hope they've improved since the last time. It's a shock to be surrounded by so much beauty and history, and get hit by the smell of dirty toilets. It's a disgrace. There's such a nice vibe here and for a moment you feel part of history as your eyes drink in those beautiful surroundings and the massive statue of Madiba. I love going there.

I visited the Union Building in Pretoria, my God it was extremely and extraordinary beautiful. Don't you leave South Africa without visiting UB, it's mind blowing and the environment and freedom to move around cannot be explained.

Great place for a stroll in the garden and enjoy some awesome views of government offices. Lot of parking available but can fill up on holidays

Well maintained and clean. Great for pick nicks and camping and temporary housing arrangement if needed. Close to other touristic attractions like the Voortrekker meuseum and the science meuseum.

Union Buildings is situated on Meintjieskop Hill in the capital city Pretoria, South Africa. It has a well-kept and enchanting garden that cascades into Arcadia suburb down below. The garden host different memorial plaques, statues, including that of the iconic Nelson Mandela.

The gardens are frequented by admirers and tourists all the time, as Union Buildings are a historical site, marking the Union of South Africa in 1910, though the building was completed in 1913. It is now housing adminstration for the government of South Africa.

A vantage view from this site shows the layout of the beautiful city of Pretoria.
