5.00Leave plenty of time, do the essentials tour and take in the beautiful environment with the realisation of its past, a real irony really. I suppose for me the tragedy of nearly 30 years ago provided a sombre overlay however the beautiful memorial was so tranquil
Great day out

5.00A very interesting place. Lots to see and read The harbour cruise was an added bonus The volunteers giving tours at certain buildings were very knowledgeable. We were very lucky to have a glorious sunny day - there is little cover from bad weather. Be sure to wear sensible footwear- some of the steps can be slippery
