Brakpan at a glance

The origins of Brakpan can be traced back to the beginning of mining activities in the area. Known for its gold and uranium mines, Brakpan, has become part of the so-called “Gateway to Africa.”

Property in the area still shows signs of its early mining beginnings with quaint homes enjoying the shade of the leafy tree-lined streets. With various golf courses in the area, many residents spend their Saturdays playing eighteen holes. If you are in the mood for music or a show, the ever-popular Carnival City attracts many people into its endless world of entertainment.

Brakpan is also situated close to O.R Tambo International Airport and thus makes it an ideal choice for businesses as an office destination.
