Cascades Female Factory Historic Site

The Female Factory highlights one of the things I love about Tasmania. They treasure their past and go to great lengths to preserve it, even when there isn´t much to see. The factor here had a wall surrounding it and a small building with a gift shop and presentation area. It was incredibly basic but you felt like you were part of something bigger.

It´s not much to look at but I thought it was well worth visiting. It is one of the stops on the Red Decker bus in Hobart. #localgem
