🇿🇦 Johannesburg City Walk? Think Twice! 😱

Our day started perfectly at Southern Sun Hotel (5min shuttle to airport, epic breakfast!)—but the "city tour" nearly gave us a heart attack. 📍 University of South Africa (UNISA) 🎓 Mandela’s alma mater (closed Sundays, but we sneaked into their history exhibit—worth it!). "Universities & markets reveal a city’s soul." 📍 Voortrekker Monument ⚔️ R205 (~¥90) entry (keep the parking ticket!). Cool fact: On Dec 16, sunlight pierces the dome to hit the tomb—Dutch descendants gather to sing till the exact moment! 📍 Church Square & Union Buildings ⚠️ "Peaceful" square? NOPE. Red flags: Zero white people in sight Aggressive hustlers, beggars, photographers A dreadlocked guy CHASED US—we sprinted to the car! 🏃💨 VERDICT: ✅ Safe bets: Museums, monuments (with guards) ❌ Avoid: Downtown walks (especially as tourists). #Johannesburg #Pretoria #SouthAfrica #TravelWarning #SafetyFirst #CityWalkFail
