Mrs Macquarie's Chair

The best seat in the house

Mrs Macquarie's Rd
Mrs Macquarie's Point
Sydney, NSW 2000
+61 2 9255 1788 (The Rocks Visitors Centre)

This is the quintessential view of Sydney--a glorious panorama that takes in the Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge, Kirribilli House, Fort Denison and the Woolloomooloo dockyards. Mrs Macquarie's Point is the peninsula to the East of Farm Cove, just a little further along Art Gallery Road from the Domain, and adjacent to the Royal Botanic Gardens. Taking pride of place is Mrs Macquarie's chair itself--hand carved by convicts from sandstone in 1810 for Governor Macquarie's wife.
