Outback Capital of the Northern Territory
The smallest of Australia’s state capitals, Darwin has nevertheless become an attractive and important urban center, being simultaneously one of the country’s most modernized cities and a gateway to both the Top End region and South East Asia.Adelaide River War Cemetery and Survivors’ Lookout will appeal to history buffs. Step out of the city life by going to Buley Rockhole and Fogg Dam Conservation Reserve. Explore the numerous day-trip ideas around Darwin: Batchelor (Batchelor Museum, Litchfield National Park, & more), Litchfield National Park (Florence Falls, Helicopter Tours, & more) and Adelaide River (Adelaide River Railway Bridg, Adelaide River Railway Museum, & more). Plan for a day of cool, family-friendly fun on the 20th (Fri) at Darwin Waterfront. Spend the 29th (Sun) exploring nature at Mary River National Park. There's still lots to do: enjoy the sand and surf at Mindil Beach, take in the architecture and atmosphere at Christ Church Cathedral Darwin, look for all kinds of wild species at Crocosaurus Cove, and take an exotic tour of a safari tour.
