Learn about Lidcombe, with Hertz
This quiet suburb is on the border to some spooky sights, thanks to its close proximity to the largest cemetery in the Southern Hemisphere, Rookwood Cemetery.
Rookwood is the largest operating cemetery from the Victorian era, and as such is quite a large tourist attraction in the area. This also means that Lidcombe itself is highly influenced by the Victorian era itself, with many heritage-listed buildings sprinkled throughout the suburb. There are also many churches and places of worship throughout the suburb, due to its close proximity to the cemetery.
Lidcombe is also home to a large shopping precinct, the Lidcombe Shopping Centre, where you’ll find over 60 stores and large name brands throughout. Head to the centre of Lidcombe to experience and enjoy the shops, restaurants, and cafes of this suburb.
Experience the Harbour City with Hertz
The Sydney CBD is just a 15-kilometre drive from Lidcombe to Sydney, which makes it easily accessible in your rental car.
Sydney is home to some of the most beautiful and iconic locations in the country. With the Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge, and the Botanic Gardens all dominating the tourist scene in Sydney, you can enjoy many of the main attractions free of charge while you’re here. Walk through the gardens before stepping outside of the Opera House and admiring the sails that capture the heart of many who visit the city. Then, why not head to one of the many beaches that line the city borders: from the Northern Beaches through to the Shire, Sydney has no shortage of endless golden sand and pristine blue waters.
There are also plenty of museums and galleries to capture your attention. Why not head to the Art Gallery of New South Wales, and enjoy many exhibitions from local, national and international artists. There are a plethora of different art types and eras, from Aboriginal art, European Renaissance and French Impressionism, to Asian and Australiasian art. Alternatively, drive across to Darlinghurst, where you’ll find the Australian Museum. Home to over 21 million artefacts from across the world, it’s the oldest museum in Australia with a history of its own dating back 175 years. It’s certainly an impressive place that displays incredible facts and figures to a global audience daily.
Lidcombe is an interesting and vibrant suburb that has the perfect combination of tourist attractions with a quiet family atmosphere. We look forward to welcoming you to the area soon, with Hertz Lidcombe Downtown.
