Enjoyed exploring the local area . Silverton is a ‘must see’ place approx. 30kms from Broken Hill. Pro Hart Gallery, desert sculptures, guided tour of the Flying Doctor Service and a visit to the slag heap overlooking the town are just a few of the highlights.

It is easy to get around Broken Hill. Walking around the City Centre is the best option. There are some beautiful old buildings and lots off Art Galleries. Broken Hill is a nice little City with a strong reminder that Broken Hill was ones a thriving mining town. The Restaurants I visited were good. The Astra and The Silly Goat. The Silly goat had the best Coffee. I only had a limited stay. I will go back to visit the outskirts of Broken Hill.

Nothing is too far..... The Living Desert is an absolute must and of course Silverton and the Hotel there..... The Palace Hotel is also worth a mention if are a Priscilla Queen of the Desert fan. So much to see but a full day is enough.

Broken Hill is a great town but I must say that the best place to visit, close by, is Silverton. Such a fun place with quirky history and great photo opportunities. Also the Mundi Mundi Lookout is A MUST. We ate at the Broken Hill Hotel for Lunch which was really nice and very generous serves. In the evening, we ate at the Palace Hotel. A fun pub with great photo opportunities and good food. The food did take an hour to be served but they were very busy and booking a table in advance is recommended. The area is very flat so walking through and around the town centre is easy.

This property with 3 lovely furnished bedrooms, plenty of TV’s and air conditioners would suit families or couples too ........it was just complete! Plenty of art galleries, and so many historical n beautiful old buildings and homes, many great hotels and clubs to choose from including the magnificent recently renovated and upmarket BHP Hotel. (stands for Broken Hill Pub). Hotel n club dining we enjoyed. We had a rental car smallToyota which cost about $60 per day n were allowed 100km per day ...700km for the 7 days which was adequate.

We found Broken Hill to be a wilderness escape from the nonsense going on in politics and covid restrictions where we live.The most interesting aspect of this place is the fact Australia's mineral wealth started here.Rich lodes of silver,lead and zinc where discovered which led to Broken Hill Propriety being formed,which to this day is the largest ore mining company in the world.People may or may not know of country towns in Australia but they are very likely to know of Broken Hill.Attractions around the town largely centre around relics from past eras.Headframes dot the landscape around the city.There are numerous mineral displays and museums to visit and a tour to Day dream silver mine on the road to Silverton is available both above ground and below.Silverton incidently has been the location of various movies requiring a wilderness location.Pro hart the artist also has his works on display in Broken hill.
