Sydney Opera House
The first image that comes to mind, when we hear Australia is the enormous and outstandingly distinctive form of architecture – the Sydney Opera House. It is a multi-venue for performing arts; the building shaped and changed the image of the whole country.
Port ARthur
Port Arthur, an open-air museum, is Australia’s one of the most important heritage destinations. It was used to be a convict settlement, in the small town of Port Arthur, that received thousands of convicts from Britain and Ireland between 1788 and 1868. It was one of the eleven remnant penal sites, now recognised as a part of World Heritage property.
Elizabeth Farm
Of all the prominent Australia historical places, Elizabeth Farm remains one of the top favourites of the visitors. Owned by wool pioneer and young military couple, Elizabeth Farm was the family home of John and Elizabeth Macarthur. It is one of the oldest homes in Australia, surrounded by orchards, 1,000 acres of semi-cleared land.
The Rocks
If old cities and ancient places entice you, then the cobbled laneways, pubs that are probably a century old, cosy cafés of The Rocks could be your utopia. One of the most popular historical sites of Australia, this ancient city stands tall and proud overlooking the humongous Sydney Harbour Bridge.
Fremantle Prison
Spanning over 15 acres of land, Freemantle is one of the prominent historical places in Australia and one of the 11 convict sites world heritage property. The prison was used for convicts from Britain transferred there to serve their terms. If you are akin to immerse yourself in the history of what prison life was like then, the Fremantle Prison gives you various tours.
