Nelson Mandela Bridge

  • Address: Take Queen Elizabeth St. from Braamfontein, or follow signs from central Newtown or from M1 south, Braamfontein and Newtown, Johannesburg

Fodor's Review:

This modern, 931-foot-long bridge with sprawling cables spans the bleak Braamfontein railway yard, connecting Constitution Hill and Braamfontein to the revamped Newtown Cultural Precinct. A symbol of the renewal process going on in the city, the bridge is especially beautiful at night, when it is lighted in white and blue.
