Downloaded from hlayiso.com GENERAL INFORMATION ON QUEENSTOWN ? ¢ QUEENSTOWN Coordinates: 31°54'S 26°53'E Queenstown is a town in the Eastern Cape in South Africa. It lies on the Komani River, which forms part of the Great Kei system of rivers. Queenstown has a refreshing climate and plentiful water supply from the surrounding rugged mountains. The water is collected in the Bonkolo Dam (the name has been changed from Bongolo Dam recently), set in the hills. This dam is used extensively for recreation and water sports. Close to Queenstown is a nature reserve (Lawrence de Lange Nature Reserve) with numerous antelope, white rhinoceros and spectacular flowering plants, together with panoramic views from the mountain summit. Queenstown has rich sandstone layers deposited by meandering rivers on the flood plain. Queenstown's layout reflects its original objective as a defensive stronghold for the frontier area and has a most unusual design. There is a central hexagonal area where canon or rifle fire could be directed down six thoroughfares radiating from the centre.
