5 museums in Asia-Pacific for your cultural fix - SilverKris

"Reopened after a two-year renovation in the historic School of Arts building from the early 20th century, this museum houses extensive archival and photographic collections documenting the city and Far North Queensland. Four permanent galleries trace Cairns’s development from an industrial port to a holiday destination, while a veranda and temporary gallery host rotating displays about local characters and stories. After a visit, visitors often sample tropical fruit at Rusty’s Market, try ziplining at the Cairns Zoom and Wildlife Dome or go snorkeling on the Great Barrier Reef." - Isabel Ong
