The Domain
Australia / Sydney, New South Wales
Location ID: #10267
Once the governor’s private park, the Domain has now become a public landmark. During December and January, many people come to see the festivals and events that are held here during the summer. Two of these are the popular Carols by Candlelight in December and the Symphony Under the Stars in January. Supporting an on-going tradition, many visitors come with picnic baskets in hand to enjoy the entertainment. In addition, the Domain has also been a popular gathering place for public rallies, such as the post-conscription rally during war in 1916, and student protests who voiced their disconcern with educational funding five years ago.
