National Women’s Day is just around the corner – taking place on Saturday, 9th August 2008. This particular South African public holiday commemorates the 1956 national march of women who petitioned against legislation that required that all African people carried special identification, known as the “pass”. This identification allowed them to enter allocated white areas.

Why not consider treating your special woman to a weekend away at one of our South Africa Hotels? SA Hotels Online offers a range of South African hotels and South African Lodges to choose from. Simply browse our hotel and lodge directory to find the perfect destination for your special getaway.
