The picturesque Rocks District of Sydney is a delightful place to visit and explore. Located within the Sydney Harbour foreshore, this prime address was first home to coastal Aboriginal people in the 18th century, who lived in caves and temporary shelters. Now it's a designated heritage area with its unique sandstone terraces and buildings that define the Rocks. Visitors can enjoy meandering through markets showcasing local art, discover the cobblestone laneways and explore the maritime history through fascinating maritime museums and exhibitions. Other highlights include the Saturday Acquaintance Day where local folk take a stroll and visit with friends of the past. Take a sailor’s walk around the Rocks, and then enjoy the pubs and restaurants for amazing Mediterranean, Asian and Australian cuisine. There's something here for everyone.
