Maboneng is Johannesburg's most successful urban regeneration project, a walkable inner-city neighbourhood packed with galleries, design studios, independent restaurants, and the excellent Arts on Main market on weekends. It captures the creative energy of the new Joburg and is one of the few areas in the inner city where you can comfortably walk between venues. The precinct has matured significantly but some blocks still require awareness — stick to the core Arts on Main and Fox Street corridor.
