The Palace of the Lost City at Sun City Resort  ...

Legend has it that an ancient civilisation from North Africa journeyed South to build a palace for their much-loved King. 

They stopped in a long-extinguished volcano crater – a veritable cradle of life. A place where weird and wonderful creatures, both great and small, roamed free amidst glittering streams and dreamy waterfalls. Here, they built a magnificent palace to befit the surroundings; their King was well-pleased. And so, the palace served as the spiritual centre of their vast empire until an earthquake reduced it to ruins. Now, restored in form and rejuvenated in spirit, The Palace of the Lost City is a modern day marvel that will make your journey, legendary.

The Palace of the Lost City at Sun City Resort
In an open courtyard, stands the life-size bronze statue of Shawu. One of the Kruger National Park’s magnificent seven elephants. Famous for his tusks.  Shawu moved over a large range which spanned the flat Mopane-covered plains between the Letaba and Shingwedzi rivers. He drifted around slowly with his three meter long tusks servings a compass through the African bush.

The architecture of the Palace is a homage to both art and nature.  From the majestic entrance with its mosaic marble floors, souring columns and eighty feet high frescoed rotunda, to many intricate design accents taken directly from nature.   The elephant reigns supreme in the Crystal Court restaurant.  A most elegant setting for breakfast, lunch and dinner.  Piano music accompanies the evening hours with chamber music during the serving of lavish afternoon teas.

A fantasy jungle of rare and exotic vegetation, recreates the living image of a Royal African world of peace and pleasure.  It is a jungle of contrasts where orchids dangle from the canopy of the rain forest and centuries-old baobabs stand sentinel on a hilltop.

Meandering footpaths of discovery, wind past rushing streams, cascades of sparkling water and tranquil pools.  Torches light the way to the foot of the Royal Staircase where guests can follow the Hippo Gorge Trail to the Hidden Cave Falls.

The Royal Staircase also links the Valley of Waves to the Palace of The Lost City via the Old East Gate Bridge.
