Bowral, Alpine resort town in Southern Highlands, Australia
The town stands at 679 meters elevation in New South Wales, featuring tulip gardens, antique markets, and cool-climate wineries across its streets.
Following its establishment in 1861, Bowral transformed from a rural settlement into a summer destination for Sydney residents seeking mountain air.
The Bradman Museum and International Cricket Hall of Fame documents the sport's history through exhibits, memorabilia, and interactive displays.
Visitors can reach Bowral via a 90-minute drive southwest from Sydney or take direct train services from Central Station.
The Corbett Gardens displays 75,000 tulip bulbs during the spring festival, making it the largest tulip showcase in the Southern Hemisphere.
