The 10 Best Things to do in Inner East, New South Wales

October 30, 2021 Deane Carmody

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.

Sydney Jewish Museum

Reviewed By WandererAZ

Thoroughly enjoyed this museum. Timed my arrival to be there for the included tour and so glad I did. Ended up staying almost two hours after the tour because there's so much to see and read about. What happened during the years of the Holocaust is an interest area for me and I am grateful to have had the opportunity to visit this museum and learn the Australian story. Thank you.

Paddington Reservoir Gardens

Reviewed By janewaldock - Melbourne, Australia

These gardens are exquisite. They have elements of Japan, and hints of islamic architecture all in a relatively tiny space. It has old and new, delightfully and sympathetically intergrated to make an oasis of golden light, reflections, charm, and playfulness. I loved the remnat octagonal columns, some in use, some left as decorative elements; i loved the mix of exotic and native flora; i loved the contemplation pool behind the arches; the new structure high overhead extends in hesitant echoes of the brick arches below. This place is absolutely gorgeous, spend 30 mintes there and improve your entire day!

Australian Museum

The Australian Museum, opposite Hyde Park in Sydney has recently undergone a $56.5 million dollar refurbishment. Established in 1827, the Australian Museum, the nation’s first museum, is committed to its leading work in scientific research, STEM education and creating world-class exhibitions for Australian and international visitors alike. As the custodian of over 20,000 cultural objects held in the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Collection and many thousands from across the Pacific, the AM is also an important site of cultural exchange and learning.

My wife is a "birder" so she really enjoyed and learned a lot from this museum's large and extremely well presented exhibit of numerous species of Australia's birds. The museum also has an outstanding dinosaur exhibit that includes a lot of geologic information as well a spectacular "skeletons."

Anzac Bridge

Reviewed By Culinary-Consultants - Ferrara, Italy

This day was very nice and sunny and we were already leaving Sydney after a wonderful stay there. Although our passing through the bridge was swift and brief we found out that this bridge was formerly the Glebe Island Bridge. Then on Remembrance Day, 11 November 1998, the New South Wales Government bestowed the bridge to the New South Wales Returned Serviceman’s League for re-naming as ‘The ANZAC Bridge’ as a memorial to members from both sides of the Tasman who formed the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps - the ANZACs. The monument located at the western end of the bridge is of an Australian soldier, and on the eastern end of the bridge is a monument of a New Zealand soldier. A handful of sand from Gallipoli rests under the foot of the digger as a permanent connection with comrades who fell and remain at the Gallipoli Battlefield in Turkey. The four meter bronze statue of an Australian World War One Digger was placed on the western end monument on the 25th April 2000. The statue of the New Zealand soldier was officially dedicated on the 27th April 2008. We did not missed whilst passing these details, but we shall have spent a bit more time I accept. Nonetheless for those who would like to give themselves the time to check out the Anzac Bridge here I leave you with its coordinates for easy reach. As follows: Located at Western Distributor Freeway, Rozelle, 2039 in Sydney NSW. Lat: -33.867778 | Long: 151.181389. Enjoy it please keep reading our very interesting and in depth reviews on everything: Attractions, Hotels, Restaurants, Museums, Airports and basically anything that is of interest and has a public service.
