Darling Harbour, Sydney 2000
Darling Harbour, on the western border of Sydney's CBD is the centre of many
purpose-built tourism, conference, indoor and outdoor entertainment and leisure activities.
On the city side,
Cockle Bay Wharf has a variety of restaurants and function rooms and
King Street Wharf is home to the Sydney Aquarium, the base to many harbour cruise and
tour
companies and home to even more restaurants.
The Darling Harbour Visitors Information Centre just around the
corner from the IMAX theatre is a good source of tourism information and
brochures.
You can walk around to the west (Pyrmont) side or cross over the historic Pyrmont
Bridge. Once, a major road to the west of Sydney, this working swing bridge was
closed to traffic in the 1980s and is now used only by pedestrians, cyclists and
the overhead monorail. The monorail track rests on a pivot so that the track
doesn't move while the bridge swings underneath.
On the west side, you'll find the Australian
National Maritime Museum, the Darling Harbour Shopping Complex, more hotels,
bars and restaurants. Under the west end of the bridge, are some extremely
well-maintained public toilets with the brightest tiles you are likely to find
anywhere.
Darling Harbour Restaurants, Delivery, Takeaway
- You'll find hundreds of Australian restaurants, bars, cafes and pubs listed on the
Menulog
restaurant directory. You can book online and get some great specials.
