Confederation Court Mall
This mall is close to the port and includes a variety of shops and eateries, such as small art galleries, souvenirs, and milk tea. It contains an upper story, which provides a quiet space to enjoy a moment's time, open a laptop, or eat lunch. There's a Scotiabank nearby where you can trade currency, as well as public bathrooms available for use.
The Emigrant Statue
💼 Touching Tribute to Canada's Emigrants 💼
Not far from Bishop's Landing near Pier 21, you'll find this life-sized, bronze statue of a man leaving his home country, briefcase in hand, to seek new opportunities in Canada, while his wife and children await his return.
The plaque on the front reads:
THE EMIGRANT
The pain of separation he overcame,
with faith and hope his heart aflame...
La souffrance de la separation il a surmontée,
le coeur brûlant de foi d' espérance...
Vinse il dolor della lontananza,
spinto dalla fede e dalla speranza...

Sacred Heart Downtown
I wasn't able to go inside, but the outside is stately and peaceful. Sacred Heart Church has been used for over 125 years, but was de-sanctified in 2014. Today, the interior is used as a venue for events and entertainment. It's located near the Port of Sydney.
Sydney Boardwalk
🎻Beautiful Scenic Nature View🎻
If you're visiting Sydney from the port, don't miss a chance to take a calming stroll along the boardwalk. Regardless of time of day, you'll be treated to a peaceful, inspiring view of the water and horizon.
The boardwalk is decorated with vivid florals, photo spots, and monuments. There are plenty of benches along the way when you need to take a rest, as well as plaques detailing the historical significance of the harbor and its sightseeing spots.
Check out my pictures for a taste of the boardwalk's beauty!

SYDNEY Sign
The iconic SYDNEY Sign is a must-stop photospot. You can see the harbor in the backdrop, and the multi-colored hue bordering each giant letter really stands out against the blue sky. Expect to wait in line a short while, as many tourists like to get their picture taken here!
