Kensington, Gauteng
Kensington is a hilly suburb of Johannesburg, South Africa. It was established in 1897 by Max Langermann (after whom the thoroughfare Langermann Drive is named). It is located in Region 3 and is bounded to the west by the suburb of Troyeville, to the east by Bedfordview and the north by Bruma and Cyrildene.
Kensington is laid out over the slopes of several koppies (flat-topped, high-sided hills). The streets were laid out in 1902, and were heavily planted with trees, which give the area a distinctive, wooded appearance. Notable features of the suburb include Rhodes Park, named after Cecil Rhodes; Jeppe High School for Boys (), Jeppe High School for Girls, and Kensington Castle. Kensington is a restaurant neighbourhood in development, with most restaurants and coffee shops being found tucked away amid the antique shops on Queen Street.
There are several shopping centres and office parks in the area such as the immense Eastgate Shopping Centre, Park Meadows Shopping Centre and the Pick 'n Pay head offices.
Kensington is also home to the headquarters for the Church of Scientology () of Johannesburg.
