Sydney Sights: A Walking Tour Through Summer Hill
Spent a Saturday taking a self-guided walking tour through the suburb of Summer Hill in Sydney. I love spending weekends exploring the backstreets of my hometown Sydney on a self-guided walking tour. Wandering through the streets of some of the best suburbs this great city has to offer. There is so much colonial history which has almost been forgotten and hidden behind modern architecture and ancient leafy trees, which now tower above some of the best buildings from our past.

Visiting the Japanese Gardens at Auburn’s Botanical Gardens
Who would have thought these amazing Japanese gardens were hiding in the middle of Auburn. If you haven’t heard, seen or been to the beautiful Japanese gardens of Auburn, this is one treat you should definitely take some time out to go explore with friends and family; or alone. Continuing on from my theme of free things to do around Sydney, this is one of those free experiences this wonderful city has to offer. This will be last blog of my Free Things To Do Around Sydney; for now. Every Spring the Auburn Gardens hold a Cherry Blossom festival in late August, to celebrate the bloom of their stunning blossom…
