Soweto Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Explore the township of Soweto
Soweto is a neighborhood in Johannesburg that is known as a township. It's an area that black people were forced to live in during the times of apartheid. Very often this was in poor condition, though some people who had more money had really nice houses here too, so don't think it was an area for poor people to live.
Nelson Mandela was probably Soweto's best known resident and you can still visit his house. Other interesting spots in Soweto include the two towers that are now used for bungee jumping. Try to find a local restaurant and you can enjoy traditional South African food such as boerewors en mieliepap.
Though you can visit the area on your own, by car, it is probably more convenient to go with a tour as the guide can explain everything to you in detail.

Landmark at Soweto
#bungee I was there last week to visit Johannesburg and Soweto. These two towers are the landmarks of that area. It is a good place to take photos and selfie. Many people do go there to do bungee. I didn’t have sufficient time as I was on a tour. If not, I would definitely try it. It is convenient to reach this place by Uber or licensed taxi. Strongly recommended to take a photo here.
