Just a short stroll from Darwin’s city centre, these lush, tropical botanic gardens showcase the local flora in all its beauty: there’s plenty of walking trails to enjoy and waterfalls to admire.
It’s hard to explain how pretty these gardens are without seeing them in person, but if you’re in Darwin, they’re absolutely unmissable!

The Northern Territory has a fascinating indigenous history, and there’s plenty of ways to learn about it: in particular, galleries such as the Aboriginal Bush Traders, Outstation Gallery and Mbantua Fine Art Gallery are well worth a visit for art lovers, and you can enjoy excellent indigenous cultural tours at the Pudakul Aboriginal Culture tours, just under an hours’ drive from Darwin.

Darwin is a cosmopolitan city, with a substantial Chinese population that at one point (the 1870s) even outnumbered its European population.
“Coolies” were contracted to work in the goldfields and build railways; by the end of the 19th century, the Chinese population of the Territory was approximately six thousand.
Currently, the Chinese population of Darwin sits at around 3,500 people, and Chinese Temple and Museum Chung Wah is one of the thriving focal points of the community.
The museum documents the history of the Chinese population of the Territory over more than a century, and the beautiful temple (originally built in 1887) is used daily as a place of worship.
It’s especially exciting to visit the temple during events, and during Chinese New Year you’ll also see lion dancers around the city as they bless more than 400 businesses and homes.

Mindil Beach is gorgeous and well worth a visit in its own right, but the Sunset Markets (which run during the dry season) are an absolute must-see.
The markets are modeled after the night markets of Asia, and Darwin’s cosmopolitan flavor is at its best here, with foods from all over the world to savour.
Over 300 small businesses operate out of the markets, contributing significantly to the local economy, as well as providing a delight for visitors and locals alike.
