Johannesburg In A Nutshell : Soweto, Gold Reef City and Apartheid Museum |
|
|
Descend into a gold mine at Gold Reef City and relive the apartheid era at the Apartheid Museum
| Overview | |
|
Johannesburg brings together a unique combination of history, culture and merriment. The humble house of South Africa’s former President, Nelson Mandela, called the Mandela Family Museum at Soweto is its star attraction. The museum displays an assortment of memorabilia, pictures and paintings of the world’s most famous former prisoner – Nelson Mandela. See the memorial of Hector Pieterson who became the symbol of youth resistance to apartheid. Visit the famous Gold Reef City, a theme park built to replicate an old mining town, and offering umpteen options to unwind. Try your luck at the casino or take a trip into the interior of earth to witness demonstrations on how gold was mined in the good old days. A trip to the Apartheid Museum brings alive the dark days of Africa’s past when blacks were oppressed by the whites. See full-blown photographs, metal cages and audio visual displays of apartheid scenes here. Take this tour for a comprehensive introduction to the pulsating city of Johannesburg.
