What a great place to stroll around whether the markets are on or not. Caught a ride on a motor bike going over the bridge and around Kirribilli and the Rocks -awesome!!

A great place to visit day or night -great markets -plenty of places to eat & great pubs & bands .must visits regards Nicole watts

But right smack dab in the middle of over-priced restaurants is the Orient Pub... Their Mega Deals are Monday $10 bar food, Tuesday $10 steaks, Wednesday $12 pasta, Thursday $10 burgers! Yum!

the Rocks is the old section of the city, down near the waterfront. There are still many of the original buildings from the 1800's including the Reynolds Hotel (very charming boutique hotel - right in the heart of The Rocks)

I looked all over Sydney for places central to the "action" and this worked out great, train from the airport drops off right on the water and the BUS service here is fantastic.

Best time to visit is of a daytime if you have children wth you as nigts can get crowded and rowdy, especally Friday and Saturday nights. Well worth the visit as it is interesting and there are somegood retaurants in the area.

Visit the oldest licensed pub in Sydney whilst at The Rocks - Fortune of War, great history to see at the pub, lots of interesting memorabilia

I know that the Rocks is totally geared to us tourists, but who cares - I love it! I love wandering around the little lanes and imagining what it must have been like 150 years ago. I also love the little markets that are held on Friday and over the weekend - a great place to pick up unique goodies... More
