If you’re in Joburg, it’d be a waste to miss out on a tour of the vibrant township of Soweto. The place is packed with history, high spirits and hot spots.
The loud blaring around the stadium is the sound of South African football – the vuvuzela. And the brightly coloured plastic trumpet is standard equipment if you’re a football fan.
The City of Joburg is partnering with the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ organisers in an innovative and ambitious environmental programme that aims to leave a positive environmental legacy long after the 2010 tournament.
