Skyline Royals & Urban Legends: The Soul of Johannesburg
In Johannesburg, concrete giants scrape at the wide African sky while secrets linger in their shadows. This self-guided audio tour leads deep into Braamfontein’s heart where every facade hides untold stories and most visitors only skim the surface. What power struggle echoed through the corridors of Eskom Centre as a fledgling city thirsted for light? Why did South African Airways’ top brass at Logistics House guard some Monday morning rituals as fiercely as their flight plans? What eccentric habits earned John Schlesinger his infamy within these somber glass walls? Move from grand towers to hidden corners, tracing the footfalls of moguls, rebels, and dreamers. Feel political ambition pulse through office towers and scandal flicker behind mirrored windows. Watch the old city come alive with every step as history unfurls in unpredictable bursts. Are you ready to let Johannesburg’s skyscrapers tell you what they remember? Press play and see what rises up from the pavement below.
