Location - Hobart
Hobart is warm sandstone, bright spinnakers on the water, fish punts at the docks, the slap of halyards on masts, coffee under the striped sun umbrellas of Salamanca, an occasional frosting of snow on Mt Wellington, bush tracks and birdsong. It's a city of history, where Battery Point's first cottages peep shyly at each other across a circle of green, and graceful old trees shelter the manicured lawns of heritage parks and gardens. It's a city of bustling markets, fun, festivals and entertainment, and of fine restaurants.
There are so many things that make Tasmania unique. Nature, history, the best beers that Australia has to offer, accompanied by fine food, cool climate wines and an easy relaxed atmosphere, these are just some of specialties that this wonderful state has to offer. Its capital city is an intriguing blend of all of those elements: heritage and lifestyle, scenery and vibrant culture. When you visit Hobart for this conference you will find it is a city of warm welcomes and friendly smiles.
Why not consider extending your stay in Tasmania, it’s a great touring destination, or just a short-break holiday. Visit Tourism Tasmania’s website www.discovertasmania.com.au for all the latest information.
