Visit Gauteng

From funky jazz venues of Newtown, Soweto with its political history and the gold mining museum at Gold Reef City, to the Lion Park and the Cradle of Humankind where our human ancestry was discovered, Gauteng offers plenty of once-in-a-lifetime experiences. Geographically the smallest province, Gauteng is an urban playground of note, taking in the cities of Johannesburg and Pretoria. Think large shopping malls, bars, hotels, casinos, and a vibrant cultural and entertainment scene. It is also South Africa’s fast-paced economic powerhouse. For visitors, there are many places of historical interest that tell the story of South Africa’s emerging democracy.
