Any interesting places to visit around Johannesburg during the Easter holidays? Cool places to drink beer. Places to see the wildlife, land etc... ?
 
Went to JhB Zoo today and must say it was pretty decent. Everything is nice and green and everything is actually nicely kept. Can see they've upgraded the place since I was there last. Take a picnic basket with the SO and enjoy.
 
I know there is a very cool rooftop bar somewhere on one of those tall building...one of the trendy/hipster places. Never been (was closed on the day I wanted to go) but I saw pics & looked pretty sweet.

Forgot the name...something ending with box I think
 
27 boxes is a nice restaurant to visit or so i have heard... they are only open during the day though.

Also on sundays there is Arts on Main in town, awesome food experience and gallery exibitions for local artist and ppl selling vintage stuff.

Fourways farmers market is also a nice day out, awesome food once again and there are bands playing and its a pet and kid friendly area as well

Randlords maybe? http://www.randlords.co.za/
I went there for my cousin's wedding. Fancy place.

They did have a really interesting feature they in the men's room. The urinal and the wall are glass, so it's like you're peeing out over Joburg.
 
Something like the Rhino & Lion Park maybe? http://rhinolion.co.za/ (just keep your windows closed and don't get eaten by the lions) . There's also quite a few places to drink beers at around there too (outside and inside the park). "There" being that entire area around the Cradle of Humankind and the Reserve and the Sterkfontein Caves....

Also then there's the whole Magalies Meander thing if you want to venture further towards Harties.

On the meander are places for Beer, Cheese, Mampoer and all kinds of crafty stuff...
