Things to do in Johannesburg, Gauteng: The Best Shopping Malls

January 28, 2022 Kaleigh Reichenbach

Johannesburg is the place to go to mix big-city culture, shopping, dining and nightlife with outdoor adventures, up-close wildlife encounters and visits to historical sites. Explore caves and nature reserves, or visit a traditional village by day, then enjoy dinner at a hip cafe or five-star restaurant. And if you're a shopper, bring an extra, empty suitcase. With malls, open-air markets and places that blend the two, you'll find plenty of unique souvenirs.

I love to visit 44 Stanley and then I forget again, so I am surprised how nice it is when I visit again. Great outdoor restaurants with wonderful food. A nice selection of local designers have shops here if you are wanting to buy local, but need a smart or trendy outfit, this is the place. A number of the designers do bespoke work too.

Filled with great shops and hotels, Rosebank is another northwestern suburb worth a visit.

The Mall of Rosebank is a huge mall with a lovely outdoor section with many eateries and very large indoor sections of shops. There is a huge Woolworths and many other stores that international travelers will recognise, such as H&M. The Mall is right next to a Gautrain stop (the train from Tambo Airport) so if you are stuck in Johannesburg for many hours, take the train out to Sandton, the Mall of Rosebank and the African Craft Markets

The mall has user friendly entrances and the woolworths, service is at the top of the range. The Food court has nice views and children playing places that are safe.
