Summary
The Princess Vlei is the gateway to the wetland system that runs through Grassy Park. The Vlei has a rich history, and has long been treasured by the many citizens who have enjoyed its beauty and tranquility. In 2014 the community won a huge victory in stopping the proposed development of a shopping mall. Since then, the Princess Vlei Forum has been working with the City of Cape Town to restore the biodiversity and transform the 100 ha Greater Princess Vlei into a world class heritage site.
