St.Marys Catherdal

St Mary's Cathedral (in College Street, running along the north-eastern side of the park) is one of the world's largest cathedrals. On the other side of the park is the Great Synagogue. Both have free tours.

Located near the Domain is the Australian Museum. Apart from interesting displays for adults, there's plenty of hands-on stuff for the kids. The Australian Museum claims to be one of the best six natural history museums in the world and has the largest and oldest collections of its type in Australia.

Across from the domain is the excellent Art Gallery of NSW. The permanent display is varied, rewarding and free and there are regular inspired temporary exhibitions where there is a charge.

Royal Botanic Gardens. These Gardens open from sunrise to sunset. Admission is free and there are free guided walks. A wonderful collection of plants and a great place for a stroll or picnic. There's also a nice restaurant.
