Built in 1858, Sydney Observatory is Australia’s oldest observatory, and one of the most significant sites in the nation’s scientific history. It is recognised as an item of ‘state significance’ by the New South Wales Government and is heritage listed.
It is such a wonderful site from which to observe the inner-city, Jo. I note your grey, gloomy skies here. I look outside this morning, and more of the same awaits us.
ReplyDeleteYes , I sat on a park bench on Observatory Hill for over an hour yesterday, such a beautiful part of the city... (easy day at work, a very rare treat).
