  We skipped touring Jo'burg when we were in South Africa in 2009. They were having demonstrations throughout the city, so we weren't sure about safety. Looks like we missed a few interesting sights.

  I lived in Johannesburg until 1992 - its a real pity what has happened in some areas. I don't particularly visit there these days as my family and friends are mainly in the Durban area. Gillybob greetings

  Great mini page of Johannesburg. High crime statistic here is kinda a setback I guess for the tourism industry, do you think so Jim? Take care.

  Not much change since I was in the area in 1995. I was attending a conference in Sandton, outside Jo'burg and never went into the city once due to the dangers. My wife did take the interesting Soweto tour while I was 'working'!

  Thanks for the virtual Soweto tour. I missed it because at the Joburg airport I had to arrange the transport of my lost luggage instead. And yes I got it back one week later in the north of Namibia by a plane landing at a airstrip in the middle of nowhere

  not Joburg University, but WITS or Witwatersrand University, has produced many Professional and Academics of International Note, scattered across the globe; it remains a fine academic and research centre ;-)))

  Maybe Sandton and rosebank are still islands of fun in this big city, I hope they can save the whole city one day!;)
