Barangaroo Reserve

16 Best Parks in Sydney | Condé Nast Traveler

"Sydney’s newest harbor foreshore park, Barangaroo Reserve offers views over Sydney Harbour Bridge, residential Balmain across the water, and on-the-up neighboring quarter Barangaroo. A 15-acre headland, it was transformed from an old industrial container terminal site in 2015, and now features lofty lawns and rocky coves for relaxing. Picnic, walk, or run in this energizing environment, designed to replicate the pre-1836 landscape here prior to colonial times. Barangaroo is named after an influential Aboriginal woman from the early colonial era. Discover more about the area’s indigenous history on an Aboriginal Cultural Tour (book online)." - Sophie Davies
