Knysna (/ˈnaɪznə/) is a town with 76,150 inhabitants (2019 mid-year estimates) in the Western Cape province of South Africa. and is one of the destinations on the loosely defined Garden Route tourist route. • A number of explanations exist for the origins of the name, 'Knysna' - including ‘xthys xna,’ purportedly from a Khoekhoe language term that night mean have meant ‘place of timber’, ‘place of ferns’, or even ‘straight down’(referring to the cliffs at The Heads). • The first Europeans arrived in the area in 1760, and the farm Melkhoutkraal (literally translating from Afrikaans as 'milk wood kraal’) was established on the eastern shore of the Knysna Lagoon. Stephanus Terblans, the first European farmer to settle in the area, was given a loan permit to farm here in 1770. • #knysna #gardenroute #westerncape • For more information: • 0:00 Portland Manor https://www.portlandmanor.co.za/ • 1:25 San Ambrosio Chapel Museum / sanambroso • 1:38 The Silkweavers Story https://pletthistory.org/a-failed-exp... • 2:09 Garden Route Trail https://gardenroutetrail.co.za/ • 2:48 Marlene Boyce / marleneboyce • 3:08 Dalene Matthee https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dalene_... • 3:49 Knysna Tourism https://www.visitknysna.co.za/ • 4:01 Love Knysna Brand Thozeka Sikali / i-love-knysna-brand-107970121477473 • 4:50 34 Degrees South http://www.34south.biz/ • 6:06 Waldemar 'Wildy' van Wyk Kiff Surfboards https://wildmanfreelance.wixsite.com/... or / kiffsurfboardsafrica
