This beautiful city sits beneath Mt Kunanyi/Wellington spreading itself along the Derwent River and is Australia's second oldest city
The history and heritage of Hobart remains mostly intact with magnificent period buildings right throughout the city. Hobart has a beautiful waterfront precinct with a magnificent deep water harbour. The area is known as Sullivan's Cove and it stretches from Salamanca Place to Hunter Street. Salamanca Market is a famous Saturday highlight selling fresh produce, local crafts and entertainment
We paid a visit to the replica of Mawson's hut, the famous Sir Douglas Mawson who set sail from Hobart to Antarctia in 1911. The hut is 100% authentic, right down to the matches, stove, bunks etc. It also has his little golliwog sitting on his bunk which staff let our little penguin mascot, Mawson have a photo with. As well as several trips across the Derwent Bridge and the beautiful historic buildings, we also visited the main entrance to the site of the former Beaumaris Zoo, where the last captive Tasmania tiger died in 1936.Leia mais
