Sydney's Jacaranda Season is Here: 6 Stunning Photo Spots

The jacarandas in Sydney are in full bloom, painting the city in romantic shades of purple. Happycat recommends six iconic spots to capture the beauty of these blossoms. Make sure to visit before the final exams start! The best time to see them is from late October to early November. 1. Circular Quay to Cahill Walk Lookout: This is the most popular spot where you can capture the jacarandas alongside the Museum of Contemporary Art, the Harbor Bridge, Circular Quay, and the Opera House. Simply search for Cahill Walk Lookout on Google. The photo spot is on the pedestrian path of the Cahill Expressway, offering great views. Get off at Circular Quay, walk towards the Opera House, take the elevator to the top floor, and follow the arrows towards the bridge. 2. Burton Street: Known as the jacaranda street, both sides are lined with flowers. You can walk from Darlinghurst to Circular Quay, capturing flowers along the way. Start at Darlinghurst, walk to Park St., cross Hyde Park into CT, and take the Light Rail to Circular Quay. 3. University of Sydney: The campus is filled with blooming jacarandas, creating a beautiful atmosphere. Recommended spots include Physics Road (next to the tennis courts), RC Mill's building, and the corner of Manning Rd & Fisher Rd. Be careful of falling petals, as legend says they bring bad luck during exams! Nearby Glebe also has many jacarandas in the neighborhood streets. 4. Kirribilli to McDoughall St: Both sides of the street are filled with jacarandas. It's a local favorite for flower viewing, with convenient access to food and the classic city walk route. From Milson Point, it's a ten-minute walk to McDoughall St. Carabella Street, just a five-minute walk away, is less crowded and equally beautiful. 5. Frys Reserve & Hogben Park: In the southern area, these parks are densely packed with jacarandas and are close to each other. Frys Reserve has rows of jacarandas, creating a stunning scene. #Sydney #Jacaranda #SydneyTravel
