Architecture in Karoo is characterized by single-story buildings with wooden shutters, verandas, courtyards, flat roofs, and white-painted stone dwellings. Due to their historical significance, several Karoo structures have been designated national monuments.
Graaff-Reinet, the largest and oldest community in Karoo, is South Africa's city where the most national monuments are found.

The Fossil Museum in Graaff-Reinet, which has recently been the scene of a struggle between energy companies, locals, and environmentalists with the discovery of shale gas, is among the major attractions.
The Valley of Desolation, located 15 minutes from Graaff-Reinet, is one of the first sites that springs to mind when the Karoo comes to mind. With its steep sandstone cliffs, Cambedoo National Park offers a visual feast, especially at sunrise and sunset.
Its towering views of the plains reaching into the horizon, the observation terrace reveals a panoramic vista of Graaff-Reinet.
