    #FlyWithMe Johannesburg, SOUTH AFRICA
    • #FlyWithMe in JOHANNES...
    Today, we will be driving in Sandton and will show you "Must Visit" place in Johannesburg.
    Sandton is an affluent area in the Johannesburg Municipality, Gauteng, South Africa. The name comes from the combination of two of its suburbs, Sandown and Bryanston. In 1969 Sandton was promulgated as a municipality in its own right, but lost its status as an independent town after the re-organisation of South African local governments.
    IMPORTANT NOTE:
    In this video I have mentioned Leonardo building height is 150 mtrs. but it is wrong. Sorry for that. I did google it but I don't know how I got wrong info.
    One of the viewer "Solomon Abrams" picked it and make me correct. Correct height of Leonardo building is "234 mtrs.". Thanks Solomon Abrams. I can't correct it in video so mentioning it here.
    I hope you will enjoy this video.

    The south east edge of my city - Kyiv, Ukraine - is very similar to Sandton. Developing countries do prefer high rise buildings, whilst the developed ones try to avoid them building those of 6-7 floors. E.g. in Netherlands you hardly find high rise buildings, meantime Ukraine, Malaysia and South Africa are just full of them.

    i have seen parallels being drawn between upperhill in Kenya, Banana island in Nigeria. Sandton is on a different level in terms of planning, class. Upperhill has a lot of the high rise building but doesn't have the same class as Sandton. The roads, the landscaping, the side cabs in upper look like someone left without completing the work and the beauty of upperhill cpould be enhanced if only they could just tear down those ugly boundary walls
