A bohemian enclave where bookshops, cafes, and weekend markets line the main street. Harbour foreshore walks and proximity to Sydney Uni give it an intellectual, laid-back charm.
Sydney's alternative heart, where King Street's endless parade of cuisines, vintage shops, and live music venues creates an eclectic, proudly diverse atmosphere. It's weird, wonderful, and utterly walkable.
