  Randburg,
Johannesburg:
Randburg is
a large town in Gauteng,
South Africa. Once a separate
municipality, its municipal government has since become a part of the City of
Johannesburg.
Randburg has over 32 suburbs, most of them residential. It is an upmarket area filled with
many family friendly entertainment facilities and park like areas. The residents in
Randburg tend to be more affluent than most Johannesburg dwellers. Here one will witness
large lavish homes and an abundance of boutiques. In fact, Randburg is well known for its
plethora of shopping centres and entertainment areas, including the Brightwater Commons,
Cresta Centre, NorthGate, Sanlam Shopping Centre and various others.
Another fantastic attraction is the Lion Park. This superb lion park features 4 prides of
lions of various ages as well as a number of rhino and other herbivores. The lions are
enclosed in a high-security area while the greater park area is given over to the other
animals. For the adventurous, why not take your photographs with the gorgeous lion cubs?
Formerly known as the Randburg Waterfront, Brightwater Commons is one of Johannesburg's
better-known entertainment, restaurant and shopping centres. The Brightwater Commons is
designed around the concept of an urban shopping space. The refurbishment of the
Brightwater Commons demonstrates a transformation from a stark harbor and warehouse
development into a welcoming small town streetscape. It is well-known for its wide
selection of restaurants which offer a variety of cuisines. It also hosts a large cinema
complex, a mini-golf course, a laser-paintball arena as well as a broad selection of
specialty stores. It is definitely an awesome entertainment centre well worth a visit!
Randburg is truly a lovely and beautiful suburb where families and friends can enjoy
fantastic days together. Whether its fun and entertainment or just pure relaxation you are
looking for, there is something here for everyone. |
