    Sandton City is one of those malls where one just cannot resist spending. Whether it is on gifts, clothing or whatever you might need, you will find it here in one on Johannesburg's most upmarket malls. When you happen to visit Johannesburg, do not miss visiting this grand mall. You will not be dissappointed.

    For the women....Go nuts on the clothing! For the men, there is plenty of shops where they can spoil themselves, or drag their girlfriend's or wives away from the shops! The kids can also have a treat and for the whole family, there are many great restaurants in this mall.

    Depends on you. It does take some self control.:))

    Hartebeespoort Dam: Buy something local.

    "taxi".

    African arts and crafts can be seen everywhere at Hartebeespoort dam. One my favourite little gifts I brought home with me, was a "little taxi" made by one of the many local craftsman. It illustrates our local taxis quite beautifully, with perhaps just a bit of exaggeration. There are plenty of fleamarkets in this area, and an abundance of local craft.

    Anything local would be nice. The South African way of life!

    As much as you wish to!
