Johannesburg Zoo is home to more than 3,000 species of mammals, birds and reptiles. The enclosure of lions, elephants, giraffes, and great apes is only divided by trenches and has no iron railings at all, so it is very popular with tourists. In addition, the newly designed polar bear habitat and the large bird cage where people can walk back and forth are also popular with tourists. In Midrand, Johannesburg, there is a Transvaal Snake Park, which displays a variety of African snakes, and the scenery is quite attractive.

A huge, very beautiful and lovely park. There is a lake in the park for swimming. The lake is surrounded by large grasslands and woods. There are various types of plants, trees and flowers in the park. Many white people come here to play on weekends. The relatively small Johannesburg Botanical Garden is also among them, also known as the Rose Garden because of its wide variety of roses.
