Destination NSW tourism video focuses on Western Sydney diversity

Destination NSW tourism video focuses on Western Sydney diversity
May 17, 2019

Destination NSW, the NSW Government’s tourism and major events agency has produced a video featuring key attractions in Parramatta, Penrith, The Hills District, Liverpool, Blacktown, Fairfield, Camden, Campbelltown and Picton.

Despite being home to almost half of Sydney’s overall population, many people are unaware of the breadth of the natural beauty, historic locations, cultural experiences, unique attractions, fine dining and outdoor adventures located in Western Sydney.

Destination NSW Chief Executive Sandra Chipchase said while the video encapsulates the essence of Western Sydney, the list of experiences the region offers is endless.

“The historic homestead at Elizabeth Farm is perfect for those of all ages looking to gain a hands-on insight into Sydney’s colonial past, while Muru Mittigar Cultural Education Centre provides an authentic Indigenous experience for all visitors,” Chipchase said.

“For those looking to enjoy Western Sydney’s beautiful outdoor surrounds, you can’t go past the Blue Mountains National Park, the iconic Nepean Belle Lunch Cruise and Featherdale Wildlife Park, while Parramatta’s Eat Street is a must-do for foodies.”

 “I am proud to represent Western Sydney, which is a key contributor to the NSW Visitor Economy and currently delivers an impressive $4.2 billion in visitor expenditure for our State,” said Minister for Jobs, Investment, Tourism and Western Sydney Stuart Ayres. 

“If you haven’t been to Western Sydney recently, you’re missing out. The region boasts a truly diverse range of activities that cater for solo travellers through to families looking for a fun weekend away.

“One of the best things about Western Sydney is our long-established cultural diversity, which inherently brings with it a unique collection of international, historic, dining and outdoor experiences, suitable for all demographics.”
