Study in Northern Territory

Darwin is the capital city of the Northern Territory of Australia. The Northern Territory is a diverse and interesting area quite different from other parts of Australia. Two and a half times the size of Texas, the Territory stretches from the green tropics of the north to the arid lands of the red center. It is a vast land, yet crammed with life. It has literally thousands of species of plants, birds, fish, reptiles and insects, many unique and some yet to be identified.

If you've never visited Darwin, you could be in for a surprise - an enjoyable one. Virtually rebuilt in 1975 after cyclone Tracy, Darwin is young, modern, cosmopolitan and tropical.

Wide streets and shady parks, a pedestrian mall, a huge range of restaurants, trendy pubs and clubs, the nightlife strip of Mitchell Street, the tourist venues of the Wharf Precinct and the upmarket housing of Cullen Bay, Tipperary Waters and Bayview Haven complete the picture.

Moving away from central Darwin, the city's surrounds are equally attractive. The northern suburbs feature cool elevated houses and lush gardens filled with palm trees, frangipani, crotons and other tropical species. Likewise, the city of Palmerston, 15 minutes drive south east of Darwin, is one of the fastest-growing parts of Australia, and its new suburbs feature the latest in tropical housing design and facilities. Further south is the shire of Litchfield, where residents enjoy the freedom of large blocks of land and the simplicity of a rural lifestyle.Darwin reflects and celebrates dozens of cultures reflected in its many festivals, markets and restaurants. In fact, the city is a shining example of how people from diverse backgrounds can live happily alongside one another. You'll particularly notice the influence of Indigenous and Asian cultures, especially when it comes to art, food and festivals.
