is Australias first museum that has inspired many a visitor, the Australian Museum. Located on College Street, this is more than a leading cultural attraction; it is also a centre of information, education and research. Visitors and curiosity seekers can learn so much about the Aboriginal culture of the indigenous Australians, the native animals and fish and get up close to skeletons of dinosaurs, dont worry they wont bite! Also on show are some really old, irreplaceable fossils and meteorites that gave scientists a geological perspective on the planet we live in.
