The City



Darwin is the capital city of the Northern Territory in Australia and is also the largest city in the sparsely populated state with approx. 140,000 inhabitants. It is the smallest and most northerly of the Australian capital cities, and acts as the Top End's regional centre. Darwin was originally a pioneer outpost. Darwin's proximity to South East Asia makes it an important Australian gateway to countries such as Indonesia and East Timor.
