Neighborhood: Maboneng

Johannesburg’s dynamic Maboneng district has blossomed since Apartheid ended, in 1994, cultivating a lively art scene and restaurants featuring fusion cuisine. Don’t miss the Museum of African Design, the Arts on Main complex—a series of formerly dilapidated buildings that now house cool galleries—and Che Argentine Grill, which serves empanadas and other Argentinian specialties to the accompaniment of a tango band.
