'''Twee Rivieren''' is a small residential suburb in [[George, Western Cape|George]], [[South Africa]]. It is located in the northern area of the city between Denneoord to the north and Bo-dorp to the south. "Twee Rivieren" is a [[Dutch language|Dutch]] name, meaning "Two Rivers". Its name is derived from its location, nestled between two branches of the [[Kat River]].
The suburb of Twee Rivieren, George, is home to two prominent churches, the [[Dutch Reformed Church]] "Moedergemeente", as well as the only Greek Orthodox Church in George, where services are still conducted in Greek.
A popular attraction in this suburb is the decoration of Oewer Street over the [[Christmas]] period. This has become an annual event since 2005 and has attracted many visitors who come to view the festive decorations and lights between Christmas and new year.
