1. Tasmazia & The Village of Lower Crackpot
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 500 reviews
The Magical World of Tasmazia is a crazy complex located in the wonderfully named promised land in the heart of tasmania's beautiful cradle mountain and lakes district. Tasmazia includes 8 mazes, featuring The Great Maze - at the time of planting the world's largest - as well as The Village of Lower Crackpot, a whimsical model village built to 1/5th scale, Embassy Gardens, a self serve Cafeteria, Gift Shop, Lavender Farm, and ever present views of majestic Mount Roland. For many of us, getting lost when on holiday is something we try to avoid, but it's totally exhilarating at Tasmazia! And don't think we're a theme park just for kids, Tasmazia has a great range of attractions to offer the entire family!

Don't miss this place, it is amazing. The mazes are fun, the tiny houses are funny and the pancakes are very tasty. It is best enjoyed in a sunny day, but do not let the rain stop you.

Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 24 reviews
The Albert Gallery is one of two art galleries operated by Working Art Space Sheffield (WASS) in the famous northwest town of Sheffield. The gallery is situated at the High street end of Albert Street, Sheffield adjacent to King George V park. It is both an art gallery and a thriving hub of local arts related activity. The gallery is housed in a heritage-listed former drill hall built in 1912 for the 22nd Light Horse Company. The interior of the building has been transformed into a high-quality arts-based facility where you can view and purchase the exceptional work of local artists and artisans, enrol in one of the regularly held workshops plus check out the latest exhibition on display. If you take the self-guided audio tour of Sheffield's murals, which can be arranged through the Visitor Information Centre, you will eventually find yourself at the Albert Gallery where it boasts its own mural relating to the Drill Hall's history.

Sheffield is a lovely town in Tasmania and well worth a visit even without its murals. Add in the plethora of murals and it becomes a must see. The size, range and high quality of the many murals is incredible. Don't expect to breeze in and out as there is too much to see and do here.

Well worth a quick stop as we learned a lot about where we could go hiking and what to see in the local area. Plus the murals are all alongside the building.
