About Johannesburg
|
 Johannesburg also known as Jozi, Jo'burg or Egoli, is the largest city in South Africa, by population. Johannesburg is the provincial capital of Gauteng, the wealthiest province in South Africa, having the largest economy of any metropolitan region in Sub-Saharan Africa. The city is one of the 40 largest metropolitan areas in the world, and is also the world's largest city not situated on a river, lake, or coastline. It claims to be the lightning capital of the world, though this title is also claimed by others.
South Africa's biggest city of Johannesburg is not traditionally known as a holiday location. Johannesburg offers plenty of dry sunny weather, an increasing number of quality attractions, and cheap flights. Top sights to see include the Golf Reef City theme park, the expansive Johannesburg Zoo, the regular performances at the Market Theatre, the eye-catching Oppenheimer Tower, and sports matches at the Ellis Park Stadium, with has a capacity of around 60,000 spectators.
 The city itself is without doubt South
Africa's financial hub and Johannesburg Airport (JNB) is therefore of great
commercial importance to business travellers. Johannesburg is home to a major
African stock exchange, many government offices and Carlton Center office tower,
which is amongst the tallest skyscrapers in the whole of Africa and offers
spectacular views from its viewing deck. Johannesburg Airport is also close to
the townships of Alexandra and Soweto and a notable connection point for
tourists heading to Cape Town, Durban and for a safari holiday at the highly
acclaimed Kruger National Park.
Johannesburg's busy airport offers travellers a range of ground transport to choose from, linking central Jo'burg and the many nearby districts, such as Fordsburg, Melville, Newtown, Parktown, Soweto and Yeoville. Particularly popular are the Magic Bus shuttle vans and authorised taxi services, while Johannesburg OR Tambo Airport also features minibuses for groups of up to 12 passengers, many car rental kiosks, and hotel-operated shuttle services. Those with shopping on their mind should jump in a taxi and head to the North Suburbs, which is home to the excellent Rosebank Shopping Mall, along with many notable restaurants. |
