Visit the Buyuk Chamlija Socio Eco Techno Park
Updated | By The Workzone with Elana Afrika-Bredenkamp/Udesha Moodley-Judhoo
What are your plans for the weekend? Why not head to Centurion?
It's the month-end weekend, so you might want something to do with the family.
If that's the case, you can visit the Buyuk Chamlija Socio-Eco Techno Park or the Turkish Village in Centurion, Gauteng. The In Your Pocket website describes the activities at this unique space perfectly.
"Buyuk Chamlija Socio-Eco Techno Village is an unusual find in Centurion.
A Turkish eco-park and farm, it's home to the Karinja coffee shop and restaurant, Cayhane mobile tea and coffee shop (that's in the form of a quirky, vintage Renault van), a Turkish-inspired Country Bazaar market store, and the on-site Tadinda restaurant, which serves authentic Turkish cuisine (think lamb clay-oven dishes and pides, meze bowls, and pistachio baklava)."

"You can take a stroll through the grounds, enjoy the Bird Park and Sanctuary (the kids will also love the goats, alpacas, and sheep that amble around the property), or join one of the seasonal festivals dedicated to harvesting cherries, berries, pomegranates, figs, and olives," reports In Your Pocket.
