A visit to the site of Sydney's first zoo, with life-size sculptures of the animals and situated on the northern shores of Botany Bay. Bushland hugs the shores of picturesque ponds with ducks, geese, tortoises and fish. There are many shady walks and gardens to explore. The Foreshore Reserve is interesting as it overlooks the Container Terminal and there are interpretative signs explaining its operations.
