Mount Wellington
4.6/5113 ReviewsWellington Park944m from downtownArchitecture & Landmarks
"I am here #Wellington Hill is located 20 kilometers west of Hobart City. It is one of the most famous local attractions. About every traveler to Hobart will come here to see it. There are a few points that must be mentioned: the wind is so big that it can blow people away. There is a whistling wind in the ear. The sound is not loud, even your mother calls you, you can't hear the sky is particularly cold, don't look at the hot sky under the mountain. After all, the mountain is high and the wind is strong. It doesn't take long to start to snort. It is estimated that the windbreaker will be frozen until your mother can't recognize the landscape. The blue sky and white clouds are not a sight, even if there is a little cloud. Occasionally, there is sunlight passing through a few lines. There is a beautiful view. There is an observation deck to prevent the wind from avoiding the sun, but it is relatively backward. Usually, most people are still willing to go forward a little further along the trail and go to the cliff to feel the bathroom for themselves. Especially if there is any need for suggestions. Ask for an absolute five-star rating. Not only clean and odorless, but also the perspective is superb. The full glass perspective effect feels like a stroll in the open-air camp. It is definitely a rare experience."Highlights: Mount Wellington is 1271 meters high and is a relatively high mountain around Hobart. The city of Hobart is built against Mount Wellington, from which you can overlook the panoramic view of Hobart. There are many viewing platforms at different heights on the mountain.

Constitution Dock
4.2/55 ReviewsHobart796m from downtownArchitecture & Landmarks"Touring Australia, this stop is coming to Hobart, the capital of Tasmania.

The Constitution Pier is the middle one, because there is a net red restaurant Mures, and it is also the first place that tourists will pay attention to when they go to the pier area.
