Chapter 572: Table Mountain and the Cape of Good Hope
"Do you know that Prince William?" asked Fang Zhengying in a low voice as he was on his way to dinner. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Fang Zhengying nodded and said: "Of course I know, the relationship between Dahua's royal family and the British royal family has always been good, when my uncle ascended the throne, Queen Elizabeth once brought Prince Charles and Prince William to Dahua to celebrate my uncle's accession to the throne." If I'm not mistaken, Prince William doesn't seem to be twenty years old that year. ”
After a pause, Fang Zhengying continued to explain in a low voice: "Queen Elizabeth of the United Kingdom is now old, and many times, it is the Queen's son Prince Charles or grandson Prince William who represents the Queen to attend various diplomatic activities. Prince William has also visited us three times, and I have met this Prince William every time, so we are friends. ”
The Grandmaster nodded in understanding.
This world is different from the previous world, in the previous world, Britain used to be the most powerful country in the world, and the empire on which the sun never sets is enough to show that Britain is strong.
But in this world, because the Great Chinese Empire has always dominated the East, and at the same time controls and influences nearly one-third of the world's land and more than half of the world's population, so although Britain is very strong in Europe, but on a global scale, Britain must also rely on the snort of Dahua.
However, the British royal family and the royal family of Dahua have always maintained a fairly good friendship, including two world wars, Dahua stood on the side of the United Kingdom, and finally won the victory in both world wars.
Now, although the United States has risen rapidly after the war, replacing Britain as the world's second largest power, the British royal family and the Dahua royal family still have a lot of friendship.
The Grandmaster has little interest in this kind of political interest, but Prince William is obviously coming for his girlfriend, and it is naturally impossible for the Grandmaster to lose face with his girlfriend.
The room arranged by Prince William is not small in size and is very luxuriously decorated, which should be the most luxurious room in this hotel.
After all, Britain used to be the de facto ruler of this land, and even now, the influence of the British in this land is enormous, especially in Cape Town, and even the government of South Africa, I am afraid that the words are not as good as the British.
Not to mention Prince William, the second in line to the British royal family, who is almost no different here than he is in the United Kingdom.
This Prince William is a middle-aged man of thirty-five or sixteen years old, with a pair of short brown hair characteristic of the British, but he looks quite handsome.
After a few pleasantries, the three of them sat down and began to talk while eating.
What the grandmaster didn't expect was that this Prince William was also an avid sports fan, especially for racing, archery and golf, this Prince William was also very proficient.
Of course, compared with the demon of the grandmaster, this Prince William can only look up. But that didn't stop him from becoming an avid fan of the Grandmaster.
Being able to make a second-in-line heir to the British royal family his fan, the grandmaster is still a little complacent.
The guests and hosts enjoyed the meal, and Prince William even invited the grandmaster and Fang Zhengying to visit Cape Town together the next day.
Anyway, the award ceremony of the rally will not take place until all the top 10 drivers have arrived, and the grandmaster estimated that it would take at least three days, so he readily agreed to Prince William's invitation.
After a good night's sleep, the next day, the grandmaster and Fang Zhengying drove the modified tough guy and followed Prince William's Range Rover bulletproof car to start touring Cape Town.
Cape Town is known as the southernmost pearl of the African continent, both in past and present lives, and the Grandmaster has never visited this city in two lifetimes combined.
This time, with the help of the east wind of the rally, the Grandmaster can have a good taste in this city.
The first to arrive is Cape Town's most famous Table Mountain, Tebul Mountain.
Table Mountain is not very high at 1,087 meters above sea level, but because it stands alone on the east coast of the Atlantic Ocean, it is a majestic mountain.
Table Mountain is called Table Mountain mainly because the shape of the mountain is so peculiar. Most of the peaks are in the shape of an awl, but the top of this mountain is flat.
It's as if this mountain was supposed to be a standard awl-shaped majestic peak, but I don't know that the great god used an axe or a giant sword to come from the mountainside and cut the upper half of the mountain directly to the Atlantic Ocean, and then there is such a "flat-topped mountain" with a length of 1,500 meters and a width of 200 meters.
The peculiar shape gave Table Mountain the nickname "God's Table", so the mountain was also named Table Mountain.
In fact, Table Mountain is very large, with a length of more than 10 kilometers from north to south, but in the north of the mountain range, such a strange shape has been formed, and the Table Mountain Range is running north-south, but it has formed such an east-west flat-topped mountain in the northernmost part, so when you look at Table Mountain from Table Bay or the main city of Cape Town, you can only see this flat-topped mountain. The Table Mountain Range, which stretches for more than ten kilometers in the southern part of Pingdingshan, is all blocked by this Pingdingshan, and nothing can be seen.
When riding the ropeway, many tourists and fans recognized the grandmaster, Fang Zhengying and Prince William, but few tourists and fans came up to disturb the three of them, after all, people came out to play. Even some fans who didn't have enough quality wanted to get close to the grandmaster, but they were quietly blocked by Prince William's bodyguards.
At the top of Table Mountain, you can look out over the whole of Cape Town and Table Bay and the Atlantic Ocean in the distance, after all, the entire city of Cape Town is built around Table Mountain.
Although Table Mountain is not high, the taste of "will be the top" is even better than Mount Tai. Therefore, even Prince William, standing on the top of the mountain, could not help but recite the poem "Wangyue" carried by the grandmaster.
After coming down from Table Mountain, Prince William took the two to the Cape of Good Hope.
The Cape of Good Hope is located in the southwesternmost corner of the Cape Peninsula, but the Cape of Good Hope is not the southernmost point of the Cape Peninsula. The Cape of Good Hope is located on a long, narrow cliff, and when you look down from here, the waves of the Atlantic Ocean crash against the cliff below, and the sound of "boom" is extremely amazing.
Looking east from the Cape of Good Hope, about 2 kilometres from the Cape of Good Hope, the southernmost tip of the Cape Peninsula is the famous Cape of Good Hope White Lighthouse.
Fang Zhengying had never been here, so this girl was extremely excited at this time.
"Master, is this Cape of Good Hope the southernmost tip of the African continent?" Fang Zhengying, who was looking at the sea in the distance, suddenly asked such a question, and asked the grandmaster for a moment......
