Heroes' Acre Cemetery
Around 1.5km west of Church Square you'll find Heroes' Acre Cemetery, the burial place of a number of historical figures including Andries Pretorius, Paul Kruger and Hendrik Verwoerd. Henry H 'Breaker' Morant, the Australian Boer War antihero executed by the British for war crimes, is also buried here - look for the low sign pointing to the gravestone from one of the north-south avenues. If you miss this, you'll never find it.

Union Buildings
The Union Buildings are the headquarters of government. The impressive red sandstone structures - with a self-conscious imperial grandeur - are surrounded by expansive gardens and are home to the presidential offices. There are no tours here, but access to the expansive grounds and public areas of the building is free and self-guided seven days per week.
