Unfortunately, in 2017, a Cape storm caused major parts of Knysna to be devastated by fires. As a result, many homes, as well as businesses, were destroyed, while over 10,000 people were forced to evacuate. Since then, tremendous efforts have been made in rebuilding the town and today, Knysna still remains one of the best places to be while visiting Western Cape.<\/p>\n
