Gold Reef City is an amusement park in Johannesburg,
South Africa. Located on an old gold mine which closed in 1971, the park
is themed around the gold rush that started in 1886 on the
Witwatersrand, and the buildings in the park are designed to mimic this
period. There is a museum dedicated to gold mining on the grounds where
it is possible to see a gold-containing ore vein and see how gold is
poured into barrels. There are many attractions at Gold Reef City,
including water rides, roller coasters, and the famous Gold Reef City
Casino.
Gold Reef City is located to the south of Johannesburg's
Central Business District off the M1.
