Top 10 Monuments & Statues in Northern Territory, Australia

June 14, 2021 Fernanda Pittenger

The Northern Territory (abbreviated as NT) is a federal Australian territory in the central and central northern regions of Australia. It shares borders with Western Australia to the west (129th meridian east), South Australia to the south (26th parallel south), and Queensland to the east (138th meridian east). To the north, the territory is bordered by the Timor Sea, the Arafura Sea and the Gulf of Carpentaria. Despite its large area—over 1,349,129 square kilometres (520,902 sq mi), making it the third largest Australian federal division—it is sparsely populated. The Northern Territory's population of 244,000 (2016) makes it the least populous of Australia's eight major states and territories, having fewer than half as many people as Tasmania.

Historical location - located on Darwin foreshore. Beautiful view. Terrific location for ANZAC Day Dawn Service. Quite surreal

Nackeroo Lookout

Reviewed By eduonthego - Melbourne, Australia

We visited the lookout largely to take in the view of Victoria River. What we found was a memorial and potted history of the troops who defended the North of Australia during the second World War. I most enjoyable visit. We followed the road, it got very rough and we didn't get any better views. Go and visit the memorial, soak up the views, take in the history and then go back down the hill.

B-24 J Liberator Wreck Site

Reviewed By 43catherinew - Kingaroy, Australia

Driving to Wagait beach follow the large brown sign, turning off onto a narrow bitumen road with a 100km/hr speed sign. Don't do 100! 60 km/hr more appropriate, pot holes and sections of road broken. There is no distance marker to the next turn, but it is not too far, a few kilometres. You take a dirt track, a little rough but well worth the slow journey to come across this historic sight. Take a moment to reflect on impacts of war while there!
