First stop is St James Church, the old Mint, Sydney Eye Hospital and the NSW Parliament. Then the Art Gallery to the Royal Botanical Gardens and the castle like stables now the Conservatory of Music.  First Fleet flagship HMS Sirius and the site of Sydney's first hanging in the Rocks.
The convict side of town. Building foundations and architecture where pretty narrow streets and alleys were home to the bubonic plague, poverty, theft, gangs and prostitution. Life was tough in Old Sydney Town.
