Renowned for its diamond mines and the discovery of the largest diamond in the world, the Cullinan diamond, Kimberley offers visitors an interesting array of attractions. The Big Hole, which was previously a thriving mine, was excavated to the point of becoming one of the largest man-made craters in the world. It serves as a popular tourist attraction as the space has been transformed into an open-air museum.
Kimberley is also the home of world-renowned De Beers diamond mines in which underground tours take place. Guided tours in diamond mines, historical museums, art galleries and old Victorian homes in the city centre are simply a few of the attractions in Kimberley.
