Described as 'Sydney's outdoor museum', The Rocks is the oldest and most
visited part of Sydney. Retaining its historical significance, it has
been transformed into a vibrant pocket of cafes and restaurants,
interesting tourist shops and stalls. Its colourful history filled with
tales of sailors, rough gangs, and early settlers, can still be traced in
the many surviving buildings from the last two centuries, such as the
charming Harbour Rocks Hotel. Nearby Towns * Manly, NW - 19 miles.
