Sydney Fish Market - the largest market in South

There are two kinds of the city's attractions - historical (such as monuments, sites and all sorts of architecture) and social - the phenomena which forms the city and its inhabitants. A stay in the country and explore the past - a big omission. For example, a large Sydney Fish Market: it was founded in 1945 and is the largest market in the Southern Hemisphere. On a variety of seafood is second only to the Tokyo.

The fish market in Sydney has nothing to do with any hypermarket where people zatarivatsya food for a week, and even more so - with offensive Asian bazaars. There are no crush and queues, the market is more similar to the fair with a wide range and very convenient infrastructure. Of course, you can buy a home, and you can sit in the numerous cafes and slowly try fresh seafood delicacies.
