Located at 500 Harris Street, Ultimo, New South Wales, Australia .nThis was a really great day visiting Powerhouse Museum. It has a wonderful range of artifacts ranging from Movie Memorabilia, Space Travel Memorabilia and Australian Railroads Memorabilia to so much more. I found it so interesting and couldn’t recommend enough.
We visited the Power house Museum last January , we just walked from one museum to another. No entrance fee .nnHighly recommended when visiting Sydney. It has memorable artifacts from Australian railroads space travel and many more. Lots of interesting displays.
We visited the Powerhouse Museum Darling on January 2, 2024. Because Sydney is a very walkable city, we walked there after we finished visiting another museum. This one in Darling is near Chinatown / Paddy Haymarket. The cost was free which made it even better! The museum was amazing. I loved the various exhibits with a focus on steam engines. It was fascinating how the use of steam powered so many things from a printing press, to a fire engine. They also had various instruments on exhibit as well. We met a wonderful employee that provided in-depth information. If you love technology from the past, you must visit! I also encourage anyone with children to visit too. They had a cool exhibit for the kids.
It's amazing display of a museum.nSo many things to see from its different eras of products.nThere are four levels of buildings to see. Don't worry, they provide escalators and lifts!nToilets and shop including cafe try their orange cake!nnTo visit this museum by bus 501 from Central or just walk from Chinatown paddy's market.nnNote : come now before they will renovate it on next February.nFree of charge.
There are some great sections, and then there are some not so much. Kids may enjoy the exhibits on space and old trams, trains. Entry is free, and there are school tours often here. Guidance on exhibits can be better, and a map with the recommended path can help. A nice experience for may be 2 hours. Interactive sections on science, space, and old steam engines will keep kids happy.
