This puzzle-filled journey shows you the highlights and hidden gems of two the city's most vibrant areas, exploring Victorian architecture, monumental statues, striking street art, great pubs and cafes and little-known snippets from local history. Which park was once used as an aboriginal ritual contest ground? Which street was the birthplace of a coup d’etat that overthrew colonial rule for almost 2 years? The answers to these questions and many more await you in the Secrets of the CBD.
Along the way expect to see: the Town Hall, the Victoria Building, Hyde Park, St Mary's Cathedral, Martin Place and First Fleet Park. All this plus puzzles, challenges, great bars and cafes and plenty of surprises!
