Romantic Restaurants, Getaway Places in City of Parramatta Council

"Next to the Opera house, Royal Botanic Garden is sparsely close and convenient. The scintillating view of the flowers, birds, statues, ponds and lots more are something to feature in your social media profile pictures. Explore and take shots, plus enjoy the sanctuary nature in the heart of the city!"

"I recommend joining an Aboriginal Heritage Walk to learn about the Cadigal people who were the original owners of this area. (every Wednesday, Friday, Saturday 10am to 11.30am). Alternatively you could join a free guided tour to learn more about the plants at the Gardens."

"If you are looking for one of the best family experiences Sydney has to offer then you must check out the incredible 360 degree views of Sydney by visiting the Sydney Tower Eye. Make your way up to the incredible observation deck which lies 250 metres above the Sydney streets and see all of Sydney. Location: Level 5, Westfield Centre, Sydney"

"Sydney Tower is the tallest structure in Sydney and the second tallest tower in the southern hemisphere. In 2009 it underwent significant renovations including connecting it with the shopping centre below."

"An Eastern suburbs favourite, Totti's Bondi are now doing takeaway with their classic wood-fired bread and the pappardelle with lamb ragu amidst other iconic dishes for your enjoyment!. Order a feast online and pick it up with some pre-batched cocktails from The Bottle Shop while you’re at it. Sounds like the perfect night in to us!"

"No need to just dream of that famous Totti’s wood-fired bread and the pappardelle with lamb ragu. Order a feast online and pick it up with some pre-batched cocktails from The Bottle Shop while you’re at it. Address and pick up hours here."

"It’s the perfect amalgamation of indoor and outdoor mall space. The outdoor space allows you to leave your children to play and shop without them continually hanging on your back. If you don’t have kids, the outdoor space still works as a breather between the tons of shopping you’ll be doing from all the speciality stores."

"If you want to go out shopping, then it is best for you to visit Westfield Warringah Mall. It has a large indoor and outdoor shopping centre. The shopping mall encompasses some good brands such as David Jones, Myer, Target, Big W, Bunnings, Woolworths and more and this is one of the best places for Shopping in Sydney."

"Dog-friendly Rouse Hill Regional Park is great for a picnic or barbecue. There is a lot to do; head to the playground, go bike riding, or take a stroll down to Second Ponds Creek."

"Head to the southern end of Manly Beach then look east across the water. That short stretch of sand about 500 metres away is Shelley Beach, far more secluded, less crowded, and has calmer water than the popular Manly Beach just next door. Shelley Beach is better suited to sunbaking, swimming and paddleboarding than surfing."

"Exotic fish, weedy sea dragons and even a mystical sunken motorcycle reside beneath the turquoise waters of Sydney’s Shelly Beach. This secluded marine reserve is a favourite of snorkelers, scuba divers and day-trippers looking for a tranquil picnic destination due to its calm water and surrounding natural bushland."

"In Manly, walk down the palm tree-lined Corso, hit the promenade on the beach for an ice-cream, walk around to picturesque Shelly Beach, or grab a cold beer at Manly Wharf Hotel. Time your return ferry trip back to the Quay to coincide with sunset behind the harbour bridge."
