Flights to Darwin
Situated on the tropical Timor Sea, Darwin (2006 population 120,900) is the capital city of the Northern Territory. This quaint city has grown from a pioneer outpost and port into a modern and industrious city. Conveniently close to Asia, Darwin is an important gateway to countries like East Timor and Indonesia. Built on a low bluff overlooking the harbour, Darwin was first inhabited by the Larrakia tribe-- otherwise known as the "saltwater people". This indigenous tribe had established trading routes with Southeast Asia. The Dutch were the first to sail Australia's northern coastline in the 1600's, and created the first European maps of the area. In 1839, British explorer John Clements Wickham sailed into the port on the HMS Beagle. He decided on the name "Port Darwin" after his former shipmate, and famous scientist, Charles Darwin. In 1869 Port Darwin was established as a town, and in the 1870's got it's taste of the gold rush. Employees of the Overland Telegraph Line found gold while digging holes for telegraph poles. This helped the young settlement grow immensely. Later, the name "Darwin" was adopted when the city became a part of the British Commonwealth in 1911.
Visit Darwin on the 1st of July for Territory Day, the only day of the year when fireworks are permitted (aside from the Chinese New Year). A large celebration occurs at the quirky Mindil Beach, which also holds a weekly market. Partake in the annual festivities of the Darwin Festival, which offers dance, film, comedy, theatre, visual art and the NT Indigenous Music Awards. There are so many annual festivals in Darwin, it's hard to list them all, but you're sure to catch at least some of the excitement. A modern city, the opportunities for entertainment are endless: The Darwin Convention Center for theatre and orchestra, busy casinos, The Northern Territory Museum and Art Gallery, and the list goes on. Visit the Indo-Pacific Marine & Australian Pearling Exhibition to see the aquarium filled with living coral and sea life. Mitchell Street is the city's popular nightlife sector, but also an entertainment hub fit with restaurants, cinemas and discos. Get involved in Darwin's thriving art scene, and visit the Deckchair Cinema-- a popular open-air theatre that shows independent and art house films. With everything a traveler is searching for, Darwin is the place to be for your next exciting vacation!
