Greater Western Sydney Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

The Blue Mountains National Park is a national park in New South Wales, Australia; Shutterstock ID 5347477
While the Blue Mountains region outside of Sydney is filled with breathtaking scenery, most visitors will go straight to the famous Three Sisters outlook or elect the on rails experience of the "Scenic World" tour. However, if you are willing to venture off the beaten path just a bit, you can be rewarded with incredible viewpoints like this one where I was lucky enough to capture an incredible sunset in a location all to myself! Make sure you find your hidden gem next time you make a visit! #Trovember
Blue Mountains National Park, NSW, Australia. Well worth a day out from Sydney... #bluemountains #australia
World's Steepest Railway, NSW Australia
Solitary Rock. There is a staircase attached to this rock that juts out within the Jamison Valley. They use to allow tourists to climb the rock but has been closed for many years for fear it was unsafe and could collapse. Such a beauty. #solitaryrock#scenicworld#katoomba#bluemountains

If I could rate this hotel minus, I would do so. It is disgraceful that such a sub-par room is sold at all, much less for the price that is being charged. Staff were lovely and attempted to help, but no offer of an upgrade into a decent room. Carpets were beyond awful. It looked like someone had ...
