Australia's Northern Territory Tourism & Visitor Guide

Welcome to Australia's Northern Territory!

Australia's Northern Territory is a vast region encompassing diverse geography, stretching from the tip of the continent's craggy northern coastline, through awe-inspiring, boundless tropics, finishing at the blazing red centre of the continent and the town of Alice Springs. Waterfalls and wind have carved telling rock formations throughout, including Uluru, or, Ayers Rock, and the landscape crawls with rare and remarkable wildlife.

Darwin is the territory's capital, and its relaxed atmosphere and location make it a convenient hub for touring the area, with the Kakadu, Litchfield and Nitmiluk national parks all nearby. The present-day calm is a far cry from the days of the Second World War, when Darwin was heavily bombed and all but destroyed by Axis armies. Geographically closer to Jakarta than Sydney, nearer to Singapore than Melbourne, Darwin can be said to be truly multicultural. The Northern Territory's second largest city, Katherine, shyly emerging as a top-rate vacation destination, is only a short drive from the tropical limestone Cutta Cutta Caves and the healing waters of the Mataranka Thermal Pools.
