Things to do in Emmarentia other than shopping would be a visit to the Johannesburg Botanical Gardens.
This is the ideal place for family bonding and to learn more about the different trees and vegetation. A piece of nature in the centre of Johannesburg, the gardens boasts over 30 000 trees and a collection of 4500 rose varieties.
