Ratanga Junction was an amusement park located in Century City, Cape Town in South Africa.[1]
The park opened in December 1998 as part of the development of the Century City area, adjacent to Cape Town's biggest shopping centre,
On August 29, 2017, it was officially confirmed by the Rabie Property Group that the amusement park would be closing. The park was officially closed down on May 1, 2018. The area will be redeveloped for residential apartments, offices, hotels, restaurants and convenience retail.[5]
Much of the old Ratanga Junction is open to the public as part of the new Ratanga Park, this is composed of a Waterbody and Public Park with the aim of being added to the Century City Parkrun when construction on the property is complete.[6]
