The Rocks is a historic and iconic area in the heart of Sydney, with its emergence dating back to the early days of European settlements in the eighteenth century. The Gadigal people of the Eora nation settled here for thousands of years, forging strong bonds with the land like other indigenous Aboriginal groups across Australia.
In the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the Rocks saw significant economic and social development, resulting in its own cultural significance, with many of the urban projects preserving its historic identity. The historic identity and the historic roots have given The Rocks its distinct flavor and festive environment. Presently, it is a perfect blend of history and modernity. It has become a popular tourist destination with cobblestone streets, roadside food carts, elegant restaurants, festive exhibitions, museums, historic buildings, and a vibrant market scene.
Sydney’s historic Rocks district is hosting The George Street Food Gallery, just outside the Museum of Contemporary Art. Let the Aussie Baby Taxi be your guide, as it provides one of the most comfortable group transfers in Sydney for a trip filled with historic vibes and flavors.
