What To Expect

St. Mary's Cathedral

St Mary’s Cathedral is one of Sydney’s most iconic and historically rich landmarks, and it’s a gem for anyone passionate about storytelling and heritage. Located on St Mary’s Road near Hyde Park, the cathedral stands on the site of Australia’s first Catholic chapel. The current structure, designed by architect William Wilkinson Wardell, is a stunning example of Gothic Revival architecture, built from local Sydney sandstone. Its twin spires, completed in 2000, make it a striking presence on the city skyline.

Mrs Macquarie's Chair

Mrs. Macquarie’s Chair. This chair is not a real chair, but a seat made out of sandstone, carved by hand over 200 years ago. It was made in 1810 for Mrs. Elizabeth Macquarie, the wife of Governor Lachlan Macquarie – one of the early leaders of New South Wales Mrs. Macquarie loved this area. Back then, there weren’t many buildings around – just trees, sky, and the sea. She would often come here to sit and enjoy the view of the harbour. So, the workers carved this seat into the rock just for her, as a quiet place to relax.Even today, the view from this spot is one of the best in Sydney. From here, you can see: The Sydney Opera House, : Explain about Opera House The Harbour Bridge: Explain about The Harbour Bridge And often, sailboats gliding across the water." "It’s a perfect place for photos, especially at sunset – so don’t forget to get a few shots!
