| Australia's National Trust protects more than 90 buildings in the Macquarie and Davey Streets in Hobart's city centre that contains around 60 of the Heritage listed buildings.
The city is spread over seven hills between the banks of the Derwent River and the summit of Mount Wellington with an incredible waterfront location, similar to that of Sydney.
Queens Domain and the Royal Botanical Gardens, along the waterfront, are ideal spots for taking a stroll. Fantabulous art galleries, markets, boats that sell fresh and cooked seafood, restaurants, and luxury hotels all rest on the waterfront, at Franklin Wharf. | On Salamanca Place, the old warehouse buildings are now full of art and craft galleries, specialty shops and cafes, intermingled with decent waterfront pubs.
