Why go
Customs House turns maritime administration into an accessible civic stop. The sandstone façade faces the old shipping cove, while the ground-floor model lets you read the central city's streets and buildings from above. The interior is useful for orientation and a short pause, especially before choosing a route through The Rocks, Macquarie Street or the waterfront.
