South African Reserve Bank Building
The South African Reserve Bank Building is a high-rise structure located in central Pretoria.

Getting There
The building is situated within the central business district of Pretoria. If you are already in the city centre, it is accessible via a short walk or a brief drive, typically taking less than 10 minutes depending on your exact starting point.
