The Gauteng region
Gauteng: The Sotho word, Gauteng, meaning "Place of Gold", is the name of the Pretoria - Witwatersrand - Vaal Triangle, one of the largest industrial regions in the southern hemisphere. A more fitting label would be hard to find. Vibrant, exciting Johannesburg, the provincial capital of Gauteng offers visitors a large selection of recreational, cultural and historical attractions. Situated some 50 km north of Johannesburg, Pretoria is renowned for its colourful gardens, shrubs and trees, particularly beautiful in spring when jacarandas envelop the avenues in mauve.
In 1886, on a patch of windswept veld, an unemployed miner stumbled upon a stone bearing traces of gold. This seemingly insignificant event had colossal repercussions and led to the discovery of the world's richest natural treasure house. Speculators, prospectors, fortune-seekers and adventurers arrived in the area from the ends of the earth, and the pastoral landscape changed almost overnight.
Johannesburg / Fourways area
The hugely impressive MenteCasino entertainment centre is a few minutes away providing an array of dining options and gaming. Sandton City is a high class shopping centre and home to top international brands, it also has one of the largest cinema complexes in the southern hemisphere and is only a 15 mins drive away. Closer to home, the Design Quarter is across the road from the apartment and consists of a variety of shopping and dining options.
How to get there
The Abbington complex is located just off of William Nichol Drive between Sandton and Fourways. The N1 motorway is less than 5 mins away giving easy access to Pretoria and Johannesburg central. William Nichol Drive its self provides main road access directly to Sandton City, Hyde Park Corner and Fourways Mall. The main airport O.R. Tambo International (previously Johannesburg International) is approximately a 30 to 45 minute drive, depending on the time of day, with easy motorway access.
