A distinctive city skyline, an energetic atmosphere, plenty of diversity and strong financial drive set Johannesburg apart as one of Africa’s most vibrant cities. The metropolis is also known as Joburg, Jozi and Egoli – the latter meaning “Place of Gold” in isiZulu.

Johannesburg is the primary point of entry for internationals arriving in South Africa and thus the city welcomes a multitude of travellers from abroad each year. It offers much in the way of opportunities and experiences to residents and visitors, business and leisure alike.

Despite parts of the city being built up, Johannesburg is in fact one of the greenest cities in the world, with approximately 10-million trees, multiple nature reserves, a number of bird sanctuaries and botanical gardens. Within Johannesburg, Sandton operates as a financial hub — home to the Johannesburg stock exchange — and is marked by high-rise buildings, a major shopping mall, Sandton City, as well as a wealth of sophisticated amenities and cultural points of interest like restaurants, theatres and art galleries.
