What's new this week
Another eleven guides across the site, continuing to fill out every section rather than racing ahead on just one:
Neighbourhoods: Surry Hills (Sydney's café capital) and Darling Harbour (the family-friendly waterfront) join the growing neighbourhoods section, giving a much clearer picture of the inner city beyond the harbour postcards.
Things to do: Two of the best free things in the entire city now have proper guides — the Royal Botanic Garden and the Art Gallery of NSW, including its striking newer Naala Badu building.
Food & drink: A full explainer on Sydney's brunch culture (genuinely closer to a civic institution than a meal), plus a guide to the city's heritage pubs and growing craft beer scene.
Day trips: The Central Coast joins the Blue Mountains, Hunter Valley, and Royal National Park as a fourth escape from the city, for anyone chasing quieter beaches than Sydney's own.
Practical info: An honest, non-alarmist safety guide (the ocean and the sun matter far more than crime), and a practical look at accessibility across public transport and major attractions.
A running tally
That's now over 30 guides live across all six sections, roughly five weeks after launch. The plan hasn't changed: two to three updates a week, spread evenly, written properly rather than churned out. Thanks for reading along — see the homepage for the current full count, which updates automatically with every new guide.
