Parkview is one of Johannesburg’s most established northern suburbs, its jacaranda-lined streets running alongside the Johannesburg Zoo and Zoo Lake.
A leafy suburb beside the zoo and lake
Parkview’s proximity to the zoo, Zoo Lake and the Johannesburg Botanical Garden gives it a genuinely green, park-adjacent character rare this close to the city centre, with older homes on mature, tree-covered stands reflecting its long settlement history.
