Plenty of parking, good variety in food court, there is a Coles, Woolworths, Hoyts and most of the chain stores are there including Rebel, Sportcraft etc. There is a Myers, Kmart and Target as well. Easy to navigate shopping centre as it’s one long straight, stores in either side and just 2 levels. Free two hour parking with multiple entrances to the centre.

Huge parkland in the city perfect for picnics and sports. Parking available at Wilsons Parking directly under the Domain. Located next to the Royal Botanic Gardens and the Art Gallery of NSW. Pick up your rubbish and take it with you, don’t place in overflowing bins. Let’s all be responsible for keeping our parklands beautiful
Time Out Sydney describes this artwork as this - “For the 2004 Biennale of Sydney, Arkansas-born Berlin-based artist Jimmie Durham created this installation from a 1999 Ford Festiva hatchback purchased in Homebush, and a two-tonne quartz boulder from a Central Coast quarry – painted with a face. Originally the car was parked on the Opera House forecourt, and onlookers watched as Durham painted a face on the stone, before it was dropped on the car from a crane above – crushing it. At the time, Durham told the Sydney Morning Herald, "This piece is concerned with monuments and monumentality, but also with nature; that implacable hard stuff.”

In 2006, the piece was permanently installed in its current location in Walsh Bay – in the middle of a roundabout. On approach from either direction along Hickson Rd, you can notice roadworks signs by Australian artist Richard Tipping that read ‘ARTWORK AHEAD’.” So there you have it. I think it represents nature and man-made objects colliding and maybe not living together so harmoniously considering the state of the earth?
Copes Lookout

Awesome look out and park area for picnics, relaxing or strolling around the harbour foreshore. Great views of the harbour bridge and the opera house. Access to Jeffrey Street ferry wharf. Street and bay parking available along Olympic Drive, metered but reasonable. Short walk from Milton’s Point train station and nearby shops.
Convenient parking for neighbouring restaurants like Zilver and cafes (there is a Starbucks on the corner) or if attending the Capital Theatre 🎭 Also across from Chinatown.
Rates are $9 per hour or flat rate of $18 for the weekend and $22 for weekday evenings.
Spaces are quite tight particular for larger cars / 4WD. I parked on the lower levels which were empty so there was a bit more room to navigate. There are no automatic pay machines, pay at the manned booth at the entrance. Lift to all levels.
The car park entrance is located just past the main entry of the capital theatre and before Starbucks
