Launceston, an elegant riverside city located in the North of Tasmania, Australia, is famous for its impressive early colonial and Victorian-era architecture. Nestled at the confluence of North Esk, South Esk, and Tamar rivers, this vibrant city is known for Cataract Gorge, a beautiful wilderness area on the edge of the city boasting panoramic views, walking trails, sculpted gardens and a chairlift. Also, it presents a bevy of cultural attractions including the impressive Queen Victoria Museum & Art Gallery and the engaging City Park, frequently visited for its Japanese Macaque monkeys. The city's flourishing food and wine scene complements its rich history, featuring local produce in cafes and restaurants around town, with Tamar Valley vineyards at its doorstep. One could easily explore the nearby Cradle Mountain and Freycinet National Park from Launceston, adding to the rich palette of its tourism offering.
