Cape Town: Chapman's Peak Drive named one of the "World's Most Beautiful Road Trip Routes"!

The Chapman's Peak Drive in Cape Town is one of the World's Most Beautiful Road Trip Routes. The Pentagon Motor Group, a motor dealer group from the UK, analyzed over 7 million Instagram hashtags associated with the world's most popular road trip destinations, and calculated how many Instagram pictures are shared per mile of the journey to name the Top 20 Most Picturesque Road Trips on Earth. According to the findings of the study, the 5.5 mile Chapman's Peak Drive, a scenic route between Noordhoek and Hout Bay along the western flank of the Chapman's Peak, a mountain on the western side of the Cape Peninsula, is the fifth most beautiful route in the world with 3425 pictures per mile.
