Darwin

Darwin, with its lush vegetation and diverse population, is a surprisingly vibrant city considering its small size. The city’s diversity is reflected in the its array of Asian and Western eating places, ranging from upmarket restaurants to budget-priced food stalls at the Mindil Beach Sunset Markets.
