South Africa is a gorgeous country and any visit to Southern Africa would be incomplete without heading to Cape Town, the Kruger National Park, and the Garden Route. It has so much natural beauty and such diversity in landscape--mountains, AMAZING beaches, winelands, and everything in between. Johannesburg is its largest city and nearly everyone young works here for at least a few years, but you're right, very few people come to South Africa (or anywhere in Africa) set on visiting a huge city. Jozi is a stop off for many people en route to other destinations and I've hosted a few friends while I've been here who have done just that! I've got a travel blog as well detailing travels throughout South Africa, Southern Africa and life as an expat in Jozi--be sure to check it out! http://nilikutashani.wordpress.com/ Happy travels everyone, xo Hi Vania!

Thanks for this amazing description, Anna! I would love to go visit Africa, but not South Africa, although it does sound interesting, I feel like the rest of Africa is worth exploring, although it would probably take a long time to do so. That said, if I were to ever visit South Africa, it wouldn't be to hang out in a city because I feel like I could do that in any other country. Although the apartheid museum does sound good. I guess you could say I have mixed feelings about visiting South Africa only because I think of Africa as a place so with so much more to offer than just museums and the usual poverty/wealth divide; but I won't know how I feel about it unless I go.
