Darling Harbour

Just a short walk from the heart of the city centre, this harbour side precinct has been developed as new tourist area with hotels, museums, parks, shopping centres and plenty of fast food shops. Everything of interest in Darling Harbour was built in the last 30 years and parts of it seem quite sterile, however the area is home to several attractions including the Sydney Aquarium, Sydney Wildlife World, the National Maritime Museum and the Powerhouse Museum.
