The Arms of Australia Inn Museum — Attraction in Sydney

Located at 127 Gardenia Avenue, Emu Plains, New South Wales, Australia 🇦🇺. A wonderful look at some of Australia’s history. The museum was once a staging post for travellers/gold diggers on their way to the gold fields on the other side of the Blue Mountains ⛰️. It’s now a popular venue for activities, tourism and special events such as school tours, school holiday activities and exhibitions. It’s also popular as a wedding venue.

It cost us $15.00 for a guided tour which included scones, jam and cream with tea/coffee. Our guide Phil was fantastic, so full of information and willing to answer any and all questions with patience. I found it so interesting and highly suggest. Thumbs...
