About Johannesburg

Johannesburg er Sør-Afrikas dynamiske økonomiske hjerte, en by med sterk historie, levende townships og kunst, der mange safarireiser begynner.

Apartheidmuseet forteller historien om segregering og motstand med stor kraft, og Constitution Hill, et tidligere fengsel der både Nelson Mandela og Mahatma Gandhi satt, er hjemsted for Forfatningsdomstolen. I Soweto er Vilakazi Street kjent som gaten der to nobelprisvinnere, Mandela og Desmond Tutu, en gang bodde, og Hector Pieterson-minnesmerket minner om studentopprøret i 1976.
