To really dig into the history of Johannesburg and discover most of the grand old homes of Jo'burg's mining boom-time era, buy a map of the city and stroll the roads of Westcliff. The homes built along the ridge here are often elevated to take advantage of the stunning views (on a clear day as far as the Magaliesberg hills). You will see grand estates, including the unique styles of one of South Africa’s most famous architects, Sir Herbert Baker. Phone the Westcliff Heritage Trust for further information and guided tour schedules.
