5 Reasons to Visit Johannesburg


Thinking of skipping the golden city of Johannesburg when you visit South Africa? Think again. Joburg is hip, happening and worthy of at least three days.

Don’t visit Johannesburg.

We kept hearing this warning from other travelers during our first two months in South Africa. Instead of scaring us away, these warnings made us curious about the capital city of South Africa. Then, after various chefs and winemakers spoke well about the food scene in Joburg, we really wanted to check the city out.

Long story short – we ended up spending three days in Johannesburg South Africa and wished we had more days to explore Africa’s fourth largest city. (FYI, Lagos is the continent’s largest city with a population of a whopping 21 million residents.)

This short visit was just enough time to give us a taste of the city’s offerings and left us wanting more. Read the full travel article here.
