Maitland, Administrative center in Hunter Valley, New South Wales, Australia.
Maitland extends along the Hunter River, protected by levees, with its central business district positioned on the right bank of the waterway.
The area, initially named Wallis Plains in 1818, became a township in 1829 with government buildings, stores, and a wharf supporting river trade.
The Maitland Regional Art Gallery exhibits local artworks in a dedicated facility, while the Hunter Valley Steamfest celebrates industrial heritage each year.
The New England Highway connects Maitland to Newcastle 35 kilometers away, with regular rail services linking the city to major regional centers.
The Maitland Jewish Cemetery, established in the mid-1800s, stands as one of only two provincial Jewish burial grounds in New South Wales.
