10 Things to do in St. James That You Shouldn't Miss

August 1, 2021 Enriqueta Cusson

Sydney offers plenty of historical and contemporary Australian flavor. The marvelous Sydney Opera House looks like a great origami sailboat, floating peacefully in a harbor. Wander the narrow cobblestone streets of The Rocks and then take in a street performance on the Circular Quay before heading into the Museum of Contemporary Art. The views from the Sydney Tower Eye observatory are epic – use this chance to get to know the layout of the city from high above.

Hyde Park

Reviewed By Bronte_129 - Sydney, Australia

City office workers and visitors have always been drawn to Hyde Park for some time-out. With 40 acres of lovely parkland, finding my own little nook has always been easy. Within the park, there's the Anzac Memorial and Pool of Reflection at the southern end, impressive views of the city skyline, and huge fig tree colonnades to wander down. Then there's the popular Archibald Fountain where people love sitting in the sunshine to people-watch or to enjoy the buskers (they always seem to have quality buskers here, and my favourite is the guy who creates mega-huge bubbles which take off in the breeze. It's so funny watching kids of all ages squealing and having the best time trying to catch them!) Also near the fountain is a giant chess board and a café. Surrounding Hyde Park is St Mary's Cathedral, the Australian Museum, and Hyde Park Barracks (a good one if you have Irish heritage). It's also a short walk to the shopping heart of the city. There are two railway stations at Hyde Park: Museum at the south-western end, and St James at the north-western end. There's heaps of buses to choose from on all sides of the park. Interestingly, the first official horse race was held at Hyde Park in 1810, complete with grandstand near Market Street. I suppose that explains why the road is curved at the park's northern end. I have never tired from visiting Hyde Park over the decades. It's also nice seeing visitors to our city enjoying this special place for photo opportunities at every turn (see attached photos).

Sandringham Garden

Reviewed By mrdom

This corner of Hyde Park has a circular garden of hedges and seasonal flowers, enclosing a fountain and partly surrounded by a vine-covered walkway. Despite the road noise, it's one of the best places in the park to sit quietly.
