As the light fades to dusk and the settlement empties of life we set off on a unique behind-the-scenes journey to explore the gracious Georgian architecture and engineering feats of the World Heritage listed Convict Kingston historic site.
As we wander the buildings and ruins in search of understanding the old town takes on a new dimension. The architecture is so much grander, the smell of darkness intermingled with the acrid sea air so much more pronounced. The sombre sound of the ocean, and the night closing in coalesce to enhance our appreciation of this extraordinary place.
These were no ordinary times? and these are no ordinary buildings. Marvel at the militarily executed architecture, meditate upon the hands that laid each stone, visit sites not normally accessed on day tours (nooks and crooks and crannies that no tourist ever finds) and learn a little more about the settlement’s tumultuous history set in stone so long ago.
