This province includes the capital Pretoria (Tshwane) and the industrial hub of Johannesburg. Gauteng or the "place of gold" is the smallest province in South Africa. It covers only 1,6% of the total surface of the country but produces 40% of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP). About 18% of the total population (7.000.000 people) live in Gauteng.
Most visitors to South Africa start or end their trip in Gauteng. Kruger National Park is approximately 5 hours away, the scenic beauty of the escarpment in Mpumalanga can be reached within 4 hours.
