Port Arthur Historic Site Review

Port Arthur Historic Site is a very important historical area of Australia. It was the first port of arrival in Australia by British colonists, and most of the sites were prisons and were the place where British prisoners were held at the time. Although it is broken, you can see that the prison here has been quite large and modern more than 100 years ago, it is worth the money to visit

Traveling to Australia, this stop is in Hobart, the capital of Tasmania, and the historic site of Port Arthur is one of Hobart’s most famous attractions. The historic site of the Prison Church, which was previously an ancient prison building, shows the local prison environment of more than half a century ago, and the justice system in Tasmania. Visitors can see the former courtroom here, or follow the dim stairs to the cell to see the cell's environment. I took a map to visit, the map marked a lot of places, now we see only a ruin, although the court, cells and other places, but also erected a sign, you can use your fantasy to imagine the original picture at that time.

beyond expectations! great atmosphere and the place is well maintained.

The historic site of Port Arthur in Tasmania (Port Arthur Historic Site), which was put into use in 1830, was a purgatory on earth. Over four decades, more than 12,000 British prisoners were imprisoned in heavy exile. More than 100 years later, Port Arthur is not as daunting as the colonial period, but it is carrying a trace of vicissitudes and bitterness. The prison is surrounded by mountains, like a natural barrier castle, which was the most eerie place for exiles, when people called it the “Hell Hole.” The site has more than 30 buildings, ruins and rebuilt antique houses, and it takes you a day to visit. A narrow Shaanxi area between Port Arthur and Tasmania surrounds the shark-infested waters, known as the “prison that cannot escape.” Visitors can visit the ancient churches built by prisoners, gunpowder libraries, cells and guard towers. There is also a prison museum full of strange styles, you can see many pictures and objects of the year, even the prisoners' clothes, whips and chains, and others shudder.

Port Arthur is still a very historic attraction. The environment is still good. I like the feeling of taking a boat to sea. Faced with the sea breeze, some historical relics look very decadent in the distance. It is said that this place used to be a place of exile, so some buildings can still be seen. Where some prisoners lived.

Port Arthur is a long-standing, tree-lined, picturesque coastal area on a peninsula in southeast Australia. Due to its geographical isolation, it was used by the British government to hold heavy prisoners between 1830 and 1877. It is Australia's most well preserved and largest ancient prison, listed on the Australian National Heritage List. Today, we can only visit the ruins of Port Arthur Prison, which were destroyed by two forest fires in 1895 and 1897, with only some broken walls. But the British-style ruins are not so stunning in the clear blue sea. It is said to be the most attractive tourist attraction in Tazhou and a must-visit place for European and American tourists.
