A world class African City

Discover Johannesburg

Johannesburg, often called Joburg by locals, is just over a century old yet still carries its gold rush legacy, drawing people from all over Africa and the world. 

The city’s contrasts are evident everywhere: sleek shopping malls juxtaposed with roadside crafts, designer brand enthusiasts alongside fast-talking car guards, old money rubbing shoulders with the newly wealthy, and hipsters mingling with hustlers. One moment you encounter polished sophistication, and the next, raw grittiness.

Joburg can warmly welcome you or rudely dismiss you. Its breathtaking sunsets and dramatic summer thunderstorms can astonish you just as much as the reckless driving of its minibus taxis. Emerging from a convoluted, segregated history, it stands as an African cosmopolitan hub, a vibrant young city constantly reinventing itself and surprising both residents and visitors.
