Their perseverance is rewarded by the discovery of great quantities of high-quality diamonds.\u00a0Within months the river bend is flooded by 20 000 people, some determined to wrest their fortunes from the river, and others, equally determined to wrest their fortunes from the hands of the diggers.\u00a0<\/p><p>Ox-drawn wagons and other traffic crossed the river over a rocky natural low-water causeway known as the &#8220;klipdrift&#8221;, which gave its name to the rough and ready village that sprung up on the riverbank.<\/p><p>In 1870, in an attempt to enforce law and order and to protect the rights of the population, the diggers committee unilaterally proclaimed the area as the Diggers Republic of Klipdrift under President Stafford Parker, the then chairman of the diggers committee. The republic\u00a0 was eventually annexed by the British, summoned it is widely assumed by Cecil John Rhodes who was operating in Klipdrift as a diamond buyer.\u00a0<\/p><p>At the same time, the Korana tribe, direct descendants of the original stone age inhabitants under the chieftainship of Jan Bloem, laid claim to a vast area that stretched 200km along the Vaal river as far as the village of Bloemhof with their capital on the riverbank in present-day\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Pniel,_Northern_Cape\">Pniel<\/a>, where the tribal gallows tree still bears testimony to his rule.<\/p><\/div><div class=\"matrix-heading clear-none\"><h2>Where to visit<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"matrix-text \"><p>Today the village of Klipdrift, renamed\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.experiencenortherncape.com\/visitor\/citiesandtowns\/Barkly-West\">Barkly West<\/a>, is the administrative centre of the area which falls under the consolidated political leadership of the Dikgatlong Local Municipality. A must-visit is the still active Anglican Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin, which when built in 1871 on the orders of the Bishop of Bloemfontein was the only church ministering to the spiritual needs of the thousands of prospectors.<\/p><p>Nefi Meyer has converted the original pump house on the riverbank into a world famous pub and restaurant with a river cruiser that offers visitors an unforgettable three-hour cruise along the river.<\/p><p>The 1.2-million-year-old stone age site at Canteen Kopje is in the process of refurbishment with plans to build an interpretive centre that will showcase this national treasure.<\/p><p>The Barkly West Museum is situated in the original toll house that guards the entrance to the cast iron bridge which was manufactured in London during 1885 and transported in sections to Barkly West, via sailing boat , steam train and ox wagon, where it became the first bridge over the Vaal River.<\/p><p>Prospectors following the river established diggers villages along the banks, including picturesque Gong Gong, the site of the only waterfall on the Vaal river; Longlands, where the original village hall has been lovingly restored by the De Kock dynasty and Sydney on Vaal\u00a0which is built in the style of an Olde English village around the village green with an exquisitely furnished guest lodge.\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.experiencenortherncape.com\/visitor\/citiesandtowns\/Delportshoop\">Delportshoop<\/a>, where horse-drawn carts and herds of goats share the roads with laid-back locals, is situated near the confluence of the Harts and Vaal rivers.
