Workation in Johannesburg: the essentials

Gold made Johannesburg. The city was founded in 1886 on farmland above the Witwatersrand reef, and it remains South Africa's economic capital, home to the continent's largest stock exchange and the Constitutional Court. About 4.8 million people live within the municipality. Remote workers tend to land in Rosebank, Sandton or Braamfontein, where coworking spaces and cafes cluster, and the Apartheid Museum and Soweto are essential visits. O. R. Tambo International Airport is about 20 km from the centre and connected to Sandton by the Gautrain. Beyond that line the city is built for cars, and many residents live behind walls, so where you stay shapes your whole experience.
