Wollongong
Wollongong is NSW's third largest city and is set amongst spectacular scenery
and is located in an immaculate position of being wedged between mountains
and the coast. While the local beaches and Lake Illawarra are excellent
for surfing, swimming and fishing, the main industry in the city is the
Port Kembla steel works, which dominates the city skyline. Mt Keira lookout,
west of the city centre holds perhaps the best view of the city (shown
in the photographs below). I am due to return to Wollongong in the near
future to spend some more time in the CBD - my visit this time was unfortunately
restricted due to the setting sun.
