Katoomba Trains leave Central to Katoomba appox every 30 mins on week days, every hour on Sunday. The trip normally takes 2 hours.

Australian Sport: To say that sport is a way of life in Australia is an enormous understatement! Such is the Australian population's devotion towards sport that it is sometimes humorously described as "Australia's national religion". The Aussie’s truly enjoy a very rich sporting history & culture. Australian athletes have excelled in a range of sports globally, and their government supported system has a lot to do with this success. The Australian government spends the most money in the world per capita on elite athlete development and fittingly the Aussie’s have led the three of the last four Summer Olympic Games in medals per capita.

  • Urban Parks, Urban Icons? the Case of Bicentennial Park in Sydney
    U H P H 2 0 1 6 I c o n s : T h e M a k i n g , M e a n i n g a n d U n d o i n g o f U r b a n I c o n s a n d I c o n i c C i t i e s | 505 Urban Parks, Urban Icons? The case of Bicentennial Park in Sydney Catherine Evans Faculty of the Built Environment, UNSW [email protected] This paper explores the question of how urban parks function as urban icons. It examines Bicentennial Park in Homebush Bay, 12 km west of the Sydney Central Business District (CBD) as a case study. Bicentennial Park was planned and designed between 1983 and 1988, a time when Australia, and its cities in particular, grappled with tensions between celebrating achievements of two hundred years of European settlement and redressing the cultural and ecological harm wrought by those achievements. The research focuses on a review of material related to the design and promotion of the park, and early reviews of the park. The discussion explores the influence of specific ideas about the city and ecology on the transformations of use, materiality, and physical form of the land that became Bicentennial Park. Findings reveal that Bicentennial Park at Homebush Bay was conceived as an awkwardly scripted design, which in turn reflects a convergence of urban planning initiatives, intensifying environmental awareness and ideological tensions within the then nascent Australian- based profession of landscape architecture.
