Praktické informácie
Sydney's Inner West offers a taste of local life away from the tourist-heavy Circular Quay. In the suburb of Newtown, King Street is lined with quirky shops and ethnic eateries, such as the famed Black Star Pastry, known for its strawberry watermelon cake. The area also hosts the Newtown Festival every November, celebrating the neighborhood's local music and arts scene with a variety of performances and stalls. For a different perspective on the city's natural beauty, visit the Royal Botanic Garden. This verdant oasis offers not just a peaceful stroll but also unbeatable views of the iconic Sydney Opera House from Mrs Macquarie's Chair, a sandstone bench hand-carved by convicts in 1810. The garden hosts the annual Tropfest, the world's largest short film festival, each February. Another fascinating spot is the Art Gallery of New South Wales, which houses a significant collection of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art. The gallery is located in The Domain, a large open space that often hosts open-air concerts and cultural events, making it a lively area to explore throughout the year.
