Top 8 Historic Walking Areas in Sydney, New South Wales
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.

I was amazed by how beautiful this walk was. At the top of the wharf, there is a short walk to the lighthouse where you can backtrack to continue along the path toward the rest of the track. great views and the opportunity to stop at the Mosman rowers club or to have a picnic overlooking the harbour at the end of the walk

Woolloomoolo Wharf NSW. Really nice spot and buzzing with activity at the various restaurants on the wharf and surrounding area. Thank goodness the Wharf was saved from demolition many years ago by local activists, thank you. The wharf includes the Ovolo Hotel, restaurants such as China Doll, Ottos, & Crinitis, a display of artistic sculptures, as well as an area of apartments. There is the Naval Base with towering vessels, and The Domain to walk through along Sydney’s iconic harbour. You can walk from the wharf via Lady Macquarie’s Bush Track along the harbour, through the Domain to the Opera House and Circular Quay. I came across a meeting of Soar & Roar car enthusiasts with very impressive cars. #WoolloomooloWharf #WoolloomooloWharfNSW #OvoloWoolloomoolo #TheDomain #SoarandRoar

Macquarie Street is not a very long street but it is important. Several institutions are located along this street and also at either end of it. The New South Wales Parliament is situated here. Also the Library of NSW, The Mint, the Old Barracks, Hyde Park at one end and the Opera House at the other, and many others. And of course there is the Botanic Gardens and the Domain Park. The street was named after the famous Governor of the NSW colony, Lachlan Macquarie.
6. Captain Cook's Landing Place

Captain Cook landed on April 28. 1770. On the beach were two natives. They talked to the aboriginals, but the aboriginals refused to let Cook's crew land on their beach. They shot a musket and another one that hit the leg of an aboriginal. The aboriginals went back to their village. When most of the aboriginals were back on the beach, Captain Cook and his crew were on the beach as well. The aboriginals threw their lances and protected themselves with shields. The Europeans had better weapons and so the aboriginals ran away. How sad! The monument is quite high and attractive. It can be seen from far. A lady wanted a photo of her with the monument. We helped her with that. I enjoyed the historical value of Captain Cook's Landing Place. It was worthwhile!
