Darwin

Darwin owes its very modern appearance to Cyclone Tracey which destroyed much of the city in 1974.  As capital of the Northern Territory, Darwin is the gateway to several national parks including Kakadu, Litchfield, and Katherine.  This city is home to peoples of forty-five different racial and cultural backgrounds.  Some of Australia's best Aboriginal art may be found here in the Northern Territory Museum of Arts and Sciences.  This area is known for its excellent sport fishing and professionally guided safari hunts.  The tropical climate supports a laid back lifestyle and the "no worries, mate"  approach to living.
