Popular Attractions in Johannesburg
- Gold Reef City: Situated eight kilometers away from the city center lies the source of Johannesburg’s wealth, opulence, and prosperity that still holds true to this day. Attracting people from all over the world in the 1800s, the Gold Rush brought people from all four corners of the globe in hopes of hitting the jackpot. Here at Gold Reef City, the “gold rush” is something completely different. Hear your heartbeat in your ears, the adrenaline pumping in your veins, and feel your heart in your mouth as you soar on the several attractions at this aureate amusement park. Sitting on an old gold mine, the park is themed around the 19th-century Gold Rush, where water rides, roller coasters, and casinos are only the beginning of the fun. In between splashing down log flumes, whirling around on roller coasters, and playing games of poker, make sure you hit the in-house museum that educates adventure-goers about the area’s golden glory days.
- The Apartheid Museum: Say what you like about South Africa — the country never shies away from shining a light on the heinous crimes of oppression and segregation that were committed during the Apartheid Movement. Illustrating the rise and fall of this calamitous era, the Apartheid Museum chooses to educate both locals and tourists about the country’s traumatic past, rather than glean over uncomfortable details of this stain on history. Throwing visitors in the deep end before they even step foot into the museum, guests are immediately split up into groups based on doctrines of racial profiling and racial discrimination as they walk through white or non-white only entrances. Utilizing a myriad of mediums, from architecture to exhibitions, the emotional journey of the Apartheid Movement is regaled in every inch of this illuminating museum. Despite unveiling information on how this prejudiced tyranny traumatized and affected individuals from all walks of life, the Apartheid Museum still celebrates the birth of a fairer democratic society with celebrations taking place all throughout the year.
