The Domain, Sydney
Description
The Domain is Sydney's playful heart. A vibrant, living, community space where events are held and Sydneysiders come together to run, play and chill. The Domain surrounds the Royal Botanic Garden. In colonial times this land was the Governor’s buffer of privacy between his residence and the penal colony. Roads and paths were constructed through the Domain by 1831 to allow public access. Since that time it has remained a place for the people and each year hosts several community sport, music and lifestyle events and festivals. Every day thousands of city workers enjoy using the space for activity and recreation. The Domain is an oasis in the heart of Sydney.
The Domain is part of and managed by the Royal Botanic Gardens and Domain Trust.
