The massive concrete pillars holding up the M1 Highway in Newtown have become an outdoor art gallery, featuring ever-changing graffiti murals by some of South Africa's top street artists. Over the years, the graffiti has also spilled over onto the surrounding streets. The pillars are a popular spot for photoshoots, but do keep a close watch on your valuables in this area.
The neighbouring Newtown Junction shopping centre offers convenient and secure parking.
