    Museum Africa is Johannesburg’s social and cultural history museum. It is located in what was once the city’s fruit and vegetable market, a large and impressive heritage building that occupies an entire city block. This museum covers a variety of eclectic historical items from Africa. Really fantastic old camera collection. Really historical & fun learning experience⚡

    Interesting exhibits. Children will surely have a nice time and learn. One exhibit is about rocks and minerals, probably one of the best I've seen. I can say that it is as interesting as the one in the National Museum in Prague, Czechia. However, I must say that the museum feels abandoned. It was a Sunday and I expected lots of people (as in Mexico's museums). However besides a friend and I there were only another three groups of people. I don't know the reason but I think that the museum needs more advertising. It's free and it's a pity to have something like this this empty. Also, there are some sections of the museum that are unused. For example, there was an exhibit about South Africa's role in WWI. But only one third of the space was used and the rest of that section was completely empty.
