Marulan New South Wales Australia
The small town of Marulan can be found on the Hume Highway between Canberra and Sydney. Although the highway bypasses the town, it’s worth a stop to see the historic buildings, have a break and enjoy a coffee at one of several cafes in town.
Historic Buildings
Most of the buildings are on George Street, so after parking we walked along the street to see them. Most of them have information boards outside, providing a history of each building. Re-purposed by their owners, many buildings are now cafes, restaurants or shops. This is great as they can then maintain them for future generations to admire.
Meridian Park
Located in Meridian Park on George St, the Marulan Meridian Arch is a sculpture that forms an arch with a metal sphere on an axis mounted at the top of arch. It is the very centre of the time zone UTC+10:00 and, as such, the sun rises here at approximately 6:00am, then sets at exactly 6:00pm, every equinox.
