Johannesburg
is situated on a ridge created by fold mountains also known
as the Witwatersrand ('white waters ridge") an lies between
1500 and 1700 metres above sea level. The Witwatersrand ridge
stretches for about 80 kilometres from east to west with interlinking
satellite cities forming a vast megalopolis. The Johannesburg
City Council has been transformed to incorporate into the
Greater Johannesburg Metropolitan Council. The new body incorporates
former black townships such as Soweto and Alexandra thereby
spreading resources more equally than before. Johannesburg
is also known as "Joburg", "Igoli" or
"Egoli" ("place of gold"), "town"
and "the golden city" |
