Pilgrim's Rest
From Freepedia
Pilgrim's Rest is a small town in the Mpumalanga Province of South Africa which has been declared a national monument. After it was officially declared a gold field in September 1873, it suddenly grew to 1,500 inhabitants. The last mine was closed in 1971. The town's original architecture remains largely unchanged since then, due to the fact that the town was declared a National Monument in 1986.
