"Rasta_Rob's Joburg Page" a Johannesburg Travel Page by Rasta_Rob

Johannesburg is a big, wild city, and is the headquarters of South Africa's mining industry. Most of the horror stories you hear about crime and violence in South Africa take place in Johannesburg, which has one of the highest crime rates of any city in the world. JoBurg does have its nice parts, though, and you can't travel around southern Africa without passing through the Johannesburg airport at least a couple times. On my last trip to the continent, I transited through JoBurg five different times. Thank goodness there is a Nando's restaurant in the international terminal!
