In addition to the shopping opportunities, Kwa Mai Mai also offers a unique cultural experience, with live music and dancing performances, as well as a variety of traditional food and drink stalls. If you're planning a visit to Kwa Mai Mai Traditional Market in Johannesburg, it's important to keep in mind a few tips. Dress casually and comfortably as the market is quite busy and can get hot. Bring cash as it's the only accepted form of payment at all stalls. Going with a local who knows the market well can also be helpful. Lastly, if you're interested in taking photos, it's important to ask permission first, especially in the muthi market where the traders are more conservative.

Soweto Township

Soweto Township

This township is a must for anyone visiting the city of Johannesburg. Major sights include Vilakasi Street, where the Mandelas once lived — their little house is now a museum. Check out Archbishop Tutu's home, the Hector Pieterson Museum, dedicated to the 1976 student uprisings, and Regina Mundi church, which also bears its resistance scars. Eat at Sakhumzi’s, the Italian-style Nambitha, or trendy Wandi’s Place. An overnight stay in one of the excellent B&Bs could prove the highlight of your trip.
