Blue Mountains
The Blue Mountains are named for the delicate azure haze that lingers along the region, which is actually a fine cloud of oil emitted by eucalyptus trees. The mystical mountains are a labyrinth of plateaus & valleys, gorges and gum trees. Famous for our heritage and history, our fine arts and culture, spectacular lookouts, and breathtaking landscapes.

Discover local talent on show and in action within a plethora of craft and antique shops, galleries and museums including Blue Mountains Cultural Centre.
