"The Port Arthur Penitentiary is an imposing looking historic building, it was used to hold convicts in the late 1850s to the 1870s. Much later in the 1960s the preparation began to keep the site for historical and tourism purposes. There a many other sections of Port Arthur also worth visiting. In 1950 a separate solitary confinement prison was built which all the convicts were moved to. There is also the Dockyard where the convicts built boats, there is a beautiful garden to walk through and the the remains of the historic coal mine that the worst convicts worked at."
Travelling in the school holidays is always a busy time so it maybe necessary to book ahead your accommodation, tours etc, especially if there is a major event is going to be happening while you are there. If you are not interested in going to the event it can be better to visit the town before or after the event then it won't be so busy. The Australia school holidays dates can differ slightly between schools so please check the school holiday dates at your child's school.

"The Horseshoe Falls and Russell Falls are a short walk from the Mount Field National Park visitors and tourism centre. They are both delightful, very popular and easy to get to as there are easy walking tracks. As you walk around the area huge tall hardwoord trees surround the falls."
