Top landmarks in Eastern Australia

Visiting western NSW? A must visit is Taronga Western Plains Zoo where conservation and breeding programs are on top of the priority list. Where you can walk, cycle or drive around the zoo and visit the wonderful creatures in substantial habitats. You can even stay on the “Savannah” overnight and go to sleep listening to the sounds of “Africa” and wake to a hearty breakfast a a sunrise tour around the zoo. #nature #zoo #australia #taronga #giraffe #sunrise #roadtrip

In September, the backyards of country NSW are blanketed with gold canola fields. The colour is a rich yellow that brightens in sunshine and deepens as clouds go by. They make for an unusual break from the luscious green that also covers this land. This was about 20 Km before Harden driving from Canberra, but if you keep your eyes open you cannot miss the gold fields!

10/10 Excellent
"Buffet breakfast could have had a bit more variety. Pool was way smaller than photo. Bed were really comfy. Went to order food after 9pm, was told restaurant was closed? It was advertised as 24hr… I went for a jog nearby at the Japanese gardens, which was nice. "
