Johannesburg, South Africa, South Africa

Johannesburg, South Africa South Africa

Johannesburg serves as the main entry point for most tourists visiting South Africa and is its largest city. First-time visitors might not realize that Johannesburg and Pretoria are only 60 kilometers apart, yet the two cities are vastly different, offering a fascinating contrast. South Africa's largest city is cosmopolitan, quirky, and vibrant, boasting glorious weather and friendly people. One of Johannesburg's charming characteristics is its truly international and cosmopolitan nature. The city is unapologetically and unmistakably African, with enough First World infrastructure to ensure a comfortable tourism experience. Newtown and the Market Theatre area form the city's cultural precinct. Braamfontein, the university district, features a great Saturday market, a lively nightlife, and a very artsy vibe. Be sure to visit the stunning Apartheid Museum. Soweto, the most well-known and celebrated township in South Africa, is a sprawling mix of shanty towns and formal housing estates located about 30 kilometers outside of Johannesburg in Gauteng. Johannesburg offers a plethora of interesting and often quirky activities. If you're willing to dig a little deeper, you'll find enough to keep you happily occupied for a few days, providing excellent context to help you understand the turbulent history that has shaped South Africa into what it is today.
