Indeed, it is the commercial epicenter of the country, possibly the continent; the hub that drives the South Africa’s and Africa’s wheels of economy.
Gauteng is strategically positioned within South Africa and between all major cities like Cape Town , Nelspruit, Bloemfontein and KZN. 75% of trade flow and possibly money flow will go through Gauteng in some form.
Gateway to Africa – Gauteng is again strategically positioned in the Northern Region of South Africa to access all neighbouring countries from and infrastructure.
International Gatekeeper and hub for international trade as well as international launchpad for travellers to and from South Africa.
Yet there is more to the Gauteng region than business, with a wide range of attractions and activities to offer residents and visitors alike. Be it road trips to neighbouring states such as the ever-popular Mozambique, Botswana and Zimbabwe or lapping up what the region has to offer.
Residents of the region enjoy the offering at their leisure, the perfect weekend breakaway to charge batteries which may have been depleted during the week.
Historical attractions which are the must-see for all include:
The Cradle of Humankind
A short 45-minute drive from Pretoria, the Cradle of Humankind is a strip of twelve dolomite limestone caves which contains the fossilised remains of ancient forms of animals, plants and hominids. The dolomites in which the caves formed, started out as coral reefs in a warm, shallow sea approximately 2.3 million years ago.
The Apartheid Museum
Telling the story of the human spirit triumphing over adversity, the Apartheid Museum in Johannesburg is a must see to appreciate the country’s history. A mere 15 minutes from OR Tambo Airport, the Museum successfully illustrates the rise and fall of Apartheid, from its inception in 1948 to its demise in 1994.
The Nelson Mandela Bridge
The largest cable-stayed bridge in South Africa, the 284-metre-long Nelson Mandela Bridge was opened by Madiba himself in 2003. It covers 40 railway tracks and links the Constitution Hill precinct to Braamfontein. The bridge carries two lanes of motor-vehicle traffic, two sidewalks for pedestrians, and a bicycle lane. A bicycle ride across the bridge taking in the wide array of artworks decorating buildings along the route is highly recommended.
The Union Buildings
Positioned at the top of Meintjies Kop, the Union Buildings overlook the City of Pretoria and is the seat of the South African Government and house the Offices of the President of SA. Designed by Sir Herbert Baker and built from light sandstone in a semi-circular formation. The grounds incorporate various monuments and statues and its gardens are asight which cannot be missed.
Freedom Park
A 52ha heritage precinct located in Salvokop, Freedom Park is a site of remembrance honouring the fallen soldiers of South Africa. It incorporates the almost 700-metre-long Wall of Names, which displays the names of over 75,000 soldiers.
Walter Sisula Botanical Gardens
Situated in Roodepoort, the Walter Sisulu Botanical Gardens incorporates almost 300 hectares of landscaped and natural veld, a haven for a myriad species of birds, a popular picnic spot for many. The Gardens are home to over 600 plant species and 220 bird species, as well as several reptiles and small mammals such as antelope and jackal. The gardens offer a number of enthralling walks and a trail alongside the waterfall.
Gold Reef City
Still one of Gauteng’s more popular destinations, Gold Reef City is a theme-parked entertainment centre which include casinos to mine exploring. Traditional African music, dance and history is a popular offering the Gold Reef City.
