Culture, art and heritage
No matter the time of year, Australia’s cultural heartbeat thumps loudly, rippling energy all over the land.
Our history is downright fascinating. The indigenous cultures of Australia are regarded as the world’s oldest living cultures and there’s so much scope for exploration, from uncovering rock art to witnessing ancient relics.
Museums dominate the landscape and reveal a huge range of subjects, including various unique and quirky topics. Australian art galleries are many and varied and deserve endless attention.
We have an enviable collection of World Heritage sites, too. Better still, most of these are easier to reach than leftover curry at the back of the fridge. Australian landmarks are just as easily accessed and make for essential viewing.
A bounty of vibrant cultural festivals and events provide even more reason to get out and explore this thriving country.
