  Sydney is the iconic harbour city of Australia, it's oldest and largest, where over 4.5 million people live. This is one of the favourite getaway destinations among Aussies and with good reasons– a zealous lifestyle, mild year-round climate, national parks, historic buildings, an impressive harbourside setting and a rich nightlife.  However some attractions are best enjoyed as soon as the sun starts to fade away and the lights start to come on! So for those looking to explore the city and its diverse culture after dark, this curated list is for you.

   

  Dinner Cruise in Sydney Harbour

   

  Sydney is arguably the most gorgeous looking city ever made and it really starts putting on a show for the residents after the sun sets in the far horizon. The lights start to dazzle one by one from its many towering skyscrapers and the city skyline becomes a canvas of bright and colourful lights! This sets the stage for a perfect Sydney dinner Cruise with a delectable menu of food and drinks! Traverse across the harbour waterways past the iconic Opera House, Harbour Bridge and Fort Denison, among others, as you indulge in a freshly prepared menu of toothsome dishes. There are numerous top vessels for you to choose from but the million-dollar catamaran stands out due to its spacious outer decks and exceptional nautical design. The cruise also houses a fully licensed bar onboard so be sure to check them out as well. You get to stroll the outer decks with a drink in your hand, capturing instagram-worthy shots of the illuminated city skyline and the harbour landmarks, an experience not-to-be missed.

  Chinatown Night Market

   

  Chinatown’s famous Friday Night Markets are one among the city’s most popular late-night shopping hotspots, a place where you can find all sorts of unique things that are inspired from the near and far. The main strip of Chinatown on Fridays from 4pm onwards becomes  a buzzing stretch of local designers, sumptuous Asian street food and interesting products that attracts both locals and tourists. There are also more than 50 stalls operated by students, designers and young artists with Asian heritage or whose artworks depict Asian cultures. It is also the place to be if you're interested in visiting little alleys filled with lanterns that make for a perfect backdrop for a photo. With a wide variety of food stalls that draw  inspiration from cuisines of Japan, Vietnam and China, the markets are becoming more and more popular among the tourists!

   

  Sydney Observatory

   

  Built in the late 1850s, the Sydney Observatory is the nation’s oldest observatory and is engraved in the scientific history of the city. This is the perfect spot to be if you're out with the family, taking a night tour of the observatory and looking through the telescope to find the moon, stars and planets. Today the observatory houses a virtual reality  3-D Space, exhibitions, a cosy planetarium, souvenir shop and a dome. The museum also plays a significant role in astronomy education of the city and public telescope viewing. Offering views of the harbour and its precincts this observatory is located near The Rocks and can be easily accessed by public transport.

   

  Hipster Newtown

   

  Newtown is a suburb in Sydney where you can come across everything from an avant-garde cinema to thrift shops. During the daytime it is a popular spot for tourists looking to shop, eat or visit art galleries and at night oit becomes a different place with indie music and hipster bars. There are also guided tours to help you  traverse across its streets and gain a deeper insight about the locals and the region itself.
