JOHANNESBURG As the former capital, Johannesburg is still the center of South Africa's culture and vibrant city life. This energetic and bustling metropolis is South Africa's largest city and economic hub. Unlike most major cities, however, Johannesburg is largely dominated by its natural attractions, which include an astonishing six million trees. It boasts over 150 heritage sites, with the Cradle of Humanity World Heritage Site, Apartheid Museum, Rhino and Lion Park, and the essential township tours within easy reach. Arguably the most cosmopolitan city in Africa, Johannesburg is also known for its exciting nightlife, wonderful shopping and outstanding global cuisine.
