The Sydney Museum, located near Circular Quay, is a museum that showcases various human, regional and cultural developments in Sydney from the Gold Rush period to modern times. 1. The old site of the government building The modern building we see today is built on the site of the first government building in Sydney, and there is still a light-colored old floor tile in front of the museum. There is a protruding observation deck on the second floor of the museum, which can overlook the floor brick ruins from above and see detailed explanations. 2. There is also an award-winning sculpture "Edge of the Trees" in front of the award-winning sculpture museum. It is a 29 pillars composed of sandstone, wood or steel. There are also engraved texts on the pillars. They are all related to the history of Sydney's aboriginal people. 3. Rich collections The entire Sydney museum has a small space, but it is designed to be small and delicate. The exhibition area in the museum is divided into 3 floors, each with different themes. Here you can see detailed introductions and related exhibits of iconic buildings such as the Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge and Central Station, as well as historical knowledge such as the places where Aboriginal people and First Fleet pioneers first met. 4. Exhibitions and activities In addition to permanent exhibits, the museum also often holds themed exhibitions and activities, so that visitors can see new and interesting things every time they visit. In the museum shop, you can buy a wealth of books on Australian architecture, history and culture, as well as Sydney souvenirs full of design sense, if you are interested, you can choose to take a look.
